LINCOLN, Neb. — There’s no place like Memorial Stadium on a Husker Football Saturday and you can be part of the “Sea of Red” this year by placing a winning bid in the Downtown YMCA ticket auction. The auction is one of the many ways that the YMCA is raising funds to help kids in need.
Community members can bid on any of the seven Nebraska Football home games. Each bid is for two tickets, located side-by-side in section 34, North Stadium.
Sharon Bredehoft, Executive Director of the Downtown YMCA, shared, “I’d really like to extend a heartfelt thank you to longtime YMCA member, Rob Logsdon, for donating these tickets. The impact of the funds raised from this auction will definitely be felt in the lives of many youth in our city.”
All proceeds from the football ticket auction will benefit the YMCA Annual Campaign-Strong Kids. Because of gifts like yours, the Y is able to provide youth programming and services for children in need whom otherwise would not be able to participate due to financial limitations. Programs include lifesaving swim lessons, before and after school care, youth sports, Teen Night and more. When you give to the YMCA of Lincoln, you make our community better and the “us” who live here stronger.
To place bids, visit ymcalincoln.org/footballtickets. Bidding will end the Monday immediately prior to each home game at 9:00am. Winning bidders will be contacted by the Downtown YMCA.
