Roller derby and philanthropy are inseparable in Madison - Isthmus | The Daily Page

Roller derby and philanthropy are inseparable in Madison - Isthmus | The Daily Page: "'We've been really lucky to have the support that we do,' says Karen Hinz, a.k.a. Toxic Spice, a member of both the Vaudeville Vixens and Team Unicorn. 'And because of that, we're always looking for different places to give back.'

The Dolls often donate a portion of ticket sales to charities. Many are local, including the Wisconsin Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Porchlight, Inc., the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin and Project Home. The league also holds food, toy and clothing drives for the Second Harvest Foodbank of Southern Wisconsin and the Dane County Humane Society."
