Foundation
The CRYSC Foundation is a leader in sport-for-development initiatives, providing the Colorado soccer community with accessible, affordable programming subsidized by significant fundraising efforts. Formed from the tailwinds of the βDepartment Formerly Known as Outreachβ, the Foundation aspires to push our Clubβs community efforts in new and innovative ways that create value for the entire membership base while maintaining a programming focus on underserved populations. The Foundation is supported by grants, individual donations, and fundraising events like the Burgundy Bash and the Worldβs Largest FootGolf Tournament, with plans to launch a social enterprise project in the near future to generate unrestricted revenue. Check out the Rapids One button, the Financial Aid button, and the Get Involved button for more specific information!
Burgundy Bash
The Burgundy Bash is our annual fundraising party taking place in late winter/early spring. A key event in our fundraising calendar, the Bash is how we celebrate, congregate, and build our community. Come for the party, stay for the company, and leave a believer in our work.
Worldβs Largest FootGolf Tournament
Officially dubbed the Largest from the Guinness Book of World Records, this tournament is a fantastic way to spend a fall weekend at Kennedy Golf Course in Denver. FootGolf is for everyone regardless of age and soccer ability. In other words, bring your toddlers and/or grandparents. They will love it.
Volunteer or Coach
We have a number of ways to help out during the year, including part-time coaching opportunities and volunteering at events. As our needs can vary depending on the time of the year, the best way to sign up is to send us a quick email letting us know your availability and background, and weβll keep you on our radar for any opportunities.

Of course, we will gladly accept your donation! Here is a link to our Colorado Gives Day website, where you can set up recurring donations or make a one-time donation.
