    The Colts and United Way Help Dreams Come True

    Are you looking to implement new philanthropic efforts? Are you looking for ways to help fans make a difference?

    The Indianapolis Colts have teamed up with the United Way to create a tremendous Horseshoe Dreams initiative to provide memorable experiences for underprivileged persons in the local marketplace. The program was designed to allow Colts season ticket holders to donate their game tickets to Colts fans who may not don't have the financial resources to attend a game.

    The initiative serves as a great way for Colts fans, who may not be able to attend a home game for various reasons, to donate their tickets to persons of need, that could really enjoy the experience. All too often, fans realize in the hours leading up to the game that they cannot attend and feel like they have to put the tickets to waste. This initiative can help them feel like they are instead making a difference in the local community (and also benefit from their donation being tax deductible).

    Fans can submit ticket donations up until three (3) hours prior to kickoff (although it is preferred that they send them in 72 hours before the game). To donate tickets, fans just have to follow a few easy steps:

    • Log into their My Colts Ticket Account
    • Click "Forward your tickets to charity"
    • Check the boxes next to the seats they would like to donate, then click "Forward"
    • Select "Donate tickets to charity" and click "Continue" to complete their donation

    This initiative serves as a benchmark for other organizations looking to align with philanthropic properties to make a difference in the community. Think of the little things your organization can do to provide memorable experiences for others!
