Youth Sports Giving Day:

Help Kids Play Sports

What is Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day?   

Organized sports play a vital role in shaping the lives of kids, and Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day is an opportunity for all Coloradans to help our youth thrive. Each year, we’ll ask Coloradans to give generously online via the Colorado Gives website to ensure all children in our state can enjoy the many benefits of athletics.     

Sept. 4, 2024, is the inaugural Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day, a collaborative effort between the Aspen Institute Project Play, Daniels Fund and hundreds of nonprofit organizations supporting youth sports throughout the state. Although the campaign kicks off on Sept. 4, donations can be made throughout the month of September. Through this campaign, organizations can raise essential funds to get more kids playing sports.  

Led by the Daniels Fund, The Weld Trust, Denver Broncos Foundation, Alpine Bank, Rose Community Foundation, Strohm Link Family Foundation, Anschutz Foundation and other sponsors, the giving campaign includes a dollar-for-dollar match of more than $1,000,000 for all online donations made starting Sept. 4, 2024. Donations will be matched until matching funds are utilized.
