FLWERY BRANCH - Falcons owner Arthur Blank pledges to donate $300,000 through his family businesses to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, but he wants every fan who attends the game to contribute as well.

The team will collect money inside each gate at the Dome. A limited number of rubber bracelets are available to fans who give at least $5.

"Our organization, players, coaches, and staff have agreed to take on the challenge of raising a significant amount of money, and it is our hope that our fans will join our team by doing their part as well," Blank said. "Together, we can make a real difference in this time of need."
