In 2022, we launched a partnership with Sharks Sports & Entertainment. If you’re a hockey fan, you may have already attended a San Jose Barracuda game at the brand-new Tech CU Arena. But our partnership goes well beyond naming rights.
We are also a proud supporter of the Sharks Foundation, an organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of underserved youth and families in the community with an emphasis in the areas of education, health and safety, and character development. The Foundation supplies emergency aid, executes unique and relevant programming, supports the advancement of youth hockey, and provides financial support and resources to organizations that enrich the lives of those in need.
We support several of their programs including Goals for Kids. In addition, we work with the Sharks Sports & Entertainment Community team on initiatives such as CUDA Classroom.
Goals For Kids
For every goal scored by the San Jose Sharks during the 2022-23 season, Goals for Kids will make a $1,000 donation to local organizations dedicated to enhancing the lives of those in need. The program has raised $160,000 since the beginning of the season.
CUDA Classroom
This program is aimed at teaching elementary and middle school students financial literacy through science and hockey. Called “The Science of Ice,” the program allows students to learn more about hockey and take a field trip to Tech CU Arena.
Donate
Since its inception, the Sharks Foundation has given more than $18.2 million back to Bay Area organizations through its annual Community Assist Grant program and season-long Giving Campaign.
