PROSPECT PARK, Pa. (WTXF) - In the season of giving, two local high school basketball teams demonstrate the meaning of the season.

Members of the girls and boys Interboro High School basketball teams each donated money to purchase floor seats at a 76ers game for a fellow student, Colin, who has Down Syndrome. Colin attends the school's basketball games, sitting on the bench for each game cheering on the Interboro Bucs players.

After they collected the money, the students presented Colin with a 76ers cap, t-shirt and the tickets for a game in February.
