Take-A-Child to the Game Program

The Gator Bowl Association is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit charitable organization. For those individuals not interested in purchasing tickets or hospitality, but would consider a 100% charitable deduction, the Gator Bowl provides this option.

The annual Take-A-Child to the Game Program is an effort to provide youth with the opportunity to experience the Konica Minolta Gator Bowl game by providing them tickets which were purchased by various companies and individual in support of the program which directly benefits children's organizations throughout Jacksonville. Corporations participating in the program purchase a block of tickets at $50 per ticket and then donate the tickets back to the Bowl. Tickets are distributed to various children's organizations based on their needs and in relation to the funds raised.

Last year's program provided 1,000 deserving youth the opportunity to attend one of the oldest Bowl Games in the nation!
