My business signed up as a sponsor for the event. Looking forward to setting a new record for sold out games this year.

Celebrating the success of the CU Basketball Team, the Next Generation Program is designed to introduce the Next Generation of fans and students to the CU experience and build a tradition of a sold out stadium for the basketball team’s home opener. Under the leadership of the Boulder Chamber, local businesses will contribute to buy 2,000 tickets and t-shirts to the team’s home opener on November 9th against Wofford College. The tickets and t-shirts will be distributed to low income and first generation middle and high school students and their families. As an added bonus CU recently announced that the basketball game will start at 5PM and fans will be able to stay on afterwards to see the CU Woman’s Volleyball Team take on the defending national champion UCLA Bruins.
The tickets will be distributed by working with local community organizations, such as: I Have a Dream Foundation of Boulder County; The Family Learning Center; Casey Middle School; Colorado MESA and the CU Pre-Collegiate Development Program. We want to provide families with a fun and exciting experience and also want to expose the students to the CU experience in a way that may inspire them to ultimately attend and attain a degree from the University. Working with the University’s Office of Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement (ODECE) we will have current first generation CU students attend the game as part of our crowd.
