Arizona – The Arizona Cardinals are partnering with the Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation (AFFCF) to provide fans with discounted football tickets while benefiting the state’s foster youth. This initiative is available from now until November 16 and aims to support local foster children through proceeds generated from ticket sales.
Fans can take advantage of this opportunity by purchasing tickets through a special portal linked to AFFCF. Discounts range from 5-20% off the standard SeatGeek price. For every ticket sold through this program, $5 will be donated to AFFCF. The initiative is set to run throughout the remainder of the 2025 football season.
Funds from the ticket sales will assist three key programs managed by AFFCF. The first, the Childhood Activities fund, supports foster youth aged 0-20 by providing financial assistance for enriching activities and items that promote personal development and happiness. The second initiative, Keys to Success, empowers youth aged 16-26 who are aging out of foster care by offering services that focus on education, employment, housing, and financial literacy. The third program, the Post-Secondary program, specifically supports youth aged 18-26 in pursuing higher education by providing necessary funding and resources.
By engaging in this partnership, the Arizona Cardinals aim to make a significant difference in the lives of foster youth across Arizona. The collaboration adds value for both the fans and the community, as it combines the excitement of football with a meaningful cause. This initiative reflects a commitment to uplifting vulnerable populations within Arizona.
Affirming the importance of this program, AFFCF has been active for over 40 years, making strides to improve the lives of foster youth through various tailored programs focused on enhancing joy, self-esteem, career readiness, and access to educational resources. The foundation works diligently to fill funding and service gaps in foster care support and aims to change the narrative surrounding foster care in Arizona. It is also eligible for the Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit, allowing donors to support this mission effectively.
Individuals interested in learning more about the AFFCF’s programs, including eligibility requirements, can visit their official website at affcf.org. Through this partnership with the Arizona Cardinals, AFFCF is set to benefit significantly from increased community engagement and support for foster youth.
This initiative not only allows football fans to support their favorite team, but it also provides them with an opportunity to give back to the community by helping those who may be facing challenges. Fans are encouraged to take part in this program and help make a positive impact on the lives of foster youth throughout Arizona.
