Kroenke Sports Charities, in partnership with A Precious Child and Colorado Honda Dealers, invites the public to support underprivileged children by dropping off new and gently-used sports equipment. Participation in extracurricular sports significantly impacts short and long-term educational, emotional, behavioral and physical outcomes for disadvantaged, poverty-stricken youth.
Representatives from the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Mammoth, and Colorado Rapids will be in attendance to greet donors. Donors will receive a tax donation letter and voucher good for two (2) tickets to a Nuggets or Avalanche pre-season home game, while supplies last. Cash donations will be accepted at the event. Monetary donations can also be made online at any time by visiting

Equipment from all sports is accepted, however equipment from the following sports is most needed: basketball, hockey, lacrosse, soccer, football, baseball, softball, and volleyball. Bicycles are accepted in any condition. Clothing donations will NOT be accepted.
Athletic cups, helmets, and mouth guards will only be accepted in brand new condition. Since its inception, the giveSPORTS Equipment Drive has collected over 202,000 pieces of sports equipment, and more than $120,000 in sports scholarship funds to benefit more than 64,000 local children in need.
