Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day 2025
The Daniels Fund and Project Play Colorado are excited to announce the second annual Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day, set to kick off on September 3, 2025, at 6 p.m. MDT. This initiative underscores the belief that every child in Colorado should have the opportunity to engage in sports, which play a vital role in personal development and community unity.
Building on Last Year's Success
In its inaugural year, the Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day achieved remarkable success, raising a staggering $3.7 million for 175 youth sports nonprofits across Colorado. These funds allowed organizations to purchase necessary sports equipment, expand programming, and even build new sports facilities, ensuring that children could participate in athletics regardless of their economic background.
Celebrating Community Support
From September 3rd to 17th, the campaign invites individuals, businesses, and community groups to support youth sports nonprofits by donating through the Colorado Gives platform at
youthsportsgivingday.org. Contributions will directly benefit programs designed to dismantle barriers to youthful play.
Hanna Skandera, President and CEO of the Daniels Fund, emphasizes that engaging in sports fosters essential life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and confidence.
