51²è¹Ýapp Foundation Featured Charity at Sky Sox Baseball
On September 2, 2017, the 51²è¹Ýapp Foundation was the featured charity at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox baseball game.
As the featured charity, the Foundation was provided a table to share information about the meaningful work of the Foundation and was given the opportunity to throw out a first pitch.
Christopher Roebuck, a 51²è¹Ýapp Colorado Springs-South student and scholarship recipient was selected to help with first pitch honors.
“I couldn’t think of a better way to feature the Foundation and honor one of our fabulous scholarship recipients,” said Tamie Hopp, Director of Alumni and Foundation Services. “Chris did a great job and represented the Foundation and the university very well.”
The Foundation was also granted a radio interview, making the overall impact and number of people reached that much greater.
The Colorado Springs Sky Sox is the Triple-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers.
Special thanks to the Sky Sox for its generosity and warm welcome, and to 51²è¹Ýapp Campus Director, Mark Hull, for his help in securing this opportunity for the nonprofit 51²è¹Ýapp Foundation.
