Flames Donate your tickets to Kids Up Front Calgary!

Do you remember the first time you went to a Flames game? Do you remember the excitement in the concourse? How about the feeling you had when you walked into the corridor to get your seats?

Kids Up Front Foundation is a local charity that provides access to arts, culture, sport and recreation for children who otherwise do not have the opportunity. Through generous donations, Kids Up Front creates fun and new experiences for these children and youth by forwarding unused event tickets. Kids Up Front Calgary partners with over 150 child-serving charitable agencies to provide tickets to children in their programs.

2 simple steps to donate your tickets!

1) Call 403-444-4246 or 403-444-4318 Monday through Friday
(Let them know CalgaryPuck sent you!)

2) Mail, courier, or drop off tickets to the reception of the Shaw building, where Kids Up Front's offices are located: #110, 105 12 Avenue SE

If you would like a tax receipt, see our website for more information.

The more lead time you give us, the easier it is for us to get the tickets in the hands of worthy recipients.

Thank you for your support!

I give a set every year, I am a game pack holder, there is always a game I can't make that my buddies who can afford it are willing to take off my hands for free.....I would rather give them to the kids

Would it be considered child abuse to make kids watch the Flames this year?

I kid. I really enjoyed the odd game I got to go to as a youngin (despite those awful late 90s early 2000s teams). Until I understood how penalty kills worked, I thought the fans cheered the down the ice clearings out of pity..

Will always give to this organisation. Had the cutest Thank You card this year. Good job I was cutting onions at the time or my husband would have had to admit to being deeply touched.

Trust me, it does not matter where they sit, the experience of attending a hockey game is more than what some of the kids that Kids Up Front helps could ever want!

I can never say enough good things about Kids Up Front. The amount of opportunities that they have provided for the youth in the agency I work for has been astonishing. We have received Flames, Hitmen, Stamps tickets in the past. We also have had tickets for Globalfest, Stampede Rodeo, shows at the Children's festival, and other activities in and around the Calgary area.

Kids Up Front is definitely a top notch organization, and I certainly would not hesitate to donate when I could.

Sadly I donated once and they failed to provide me with a tax receipt. I was too busy to investigate but that still leaves me disappointed. Should be straightforward.

I've got some PL10 row 1 that I can't make. Should I just email to them or call their number first?
