Louisville City FC on Wednesday announced a new ticket and fundraising program, LouCity Give&Go, to benefit deserving causes throughout Kentuckiana.
The “Give” portion of the initiative presents a new fundraising opportunity for local 501(c)3 organizations to get to experience the excitement of a LouCity home game while at the same time raising vital funds for their nonprofits.
This season, LouCity is making up to 5,000 single-game tickets available to charitable organizations to sell to the public at a nonprofit rate. For each ticket sold in the “Give” part of the program, a $4 contribution will go back to the nonprofit organization.
The program is also open to for-profit companies and individuals who would like to purchase and donate tickets in the “Go” part of the initiative, allowing less fortunate families and groups the opportunity to see pro soccer at Slugger Field.
Additionally, for-profit organizations and individuals can purchase tickets and donate for non-profit use. Any tickets bought through the “Go” portion of the program can be tax deductible.
LouCity is initially making donated tickets available to the following nonprofits:
• Active Heroes
• Big Brothers/Big Sisters
• Jefferson County Public Education Foundation
• U.S. Military Families
• YMCA Safe Shelter Program
Any fans or companies who wish to purchase and donate match tickets should call the Louisville City FC ticket office at (502) 384-8799.
Any non-profits wishing to adopt the program as a fundraising opportunity should contact Zach Darst at zdarst@louisvillecityfc.com.
