BECOMING A HOUSTON COUGAR CHARITY PARTNER
Program Policy & Guidelines
- Applicants must be a local non-profit 501(c)3 designated organizations or schools that provide direct service to disadvantaged or at-risk youth in the Greater Houston Area.
- The organization must complete a Ticket Usage Agreement and Waiver and Release Agreement. Incomplete forms will not be processed.
- Only one contact is accepted for each organization as this streamlines the ticket request process and prevents duplicate orders. The requester will be the primary contact for the organization and will receive ticket usage reports after every game.
- Organizations are asked to request only the number of tickets they are certain will be utilized. Under any circumstance, organizations with unused tickets or attendance below 90% will be contacted and removed from the program for the remainder of the season. It is the organization's responsibility to ensure that the attendance standard is met.
- Tickets are non-refundable, non-exchangeable and may not be resold. Houston Athletics hold the right to permanently remove from the program any organization or individual who participates in the re-selling or further mishandling of donated tickets.
- Failure to utilize given tickets or to adhere to these program guidelines will result in loss of consideration or eligibility for future ticket distributions.
- It is the responsibility of the organization applying for tickets to keep track of the dates and number of tickets that were confirmed for its utilization.
- If an organization is unable to utilize the tickets once confirmed, 72-hour notice must be given in order to allocate the tickets to another charitable organization. If no prior notice is given, the organization must utilize ALL of the tickets donated in order to be considered for future ticket donation requests.
- Groups are encouraged to wear Houston Cougar Red apparel to games.
- Organizations will be contacted by a member of the ticket office if their request is approved to discuss details and game options. Tickets will be distributed electronically to the organization for them to distribute via UH Cougars online account.
- *Please note - Men's Basketball tickets are not available due to inventory; select Football games may also not be available.
- At the conclusion of attending the Houston Cougar event, organizations are asked to send thank you cards or pictures that may be shared with the donor or underwriter of your donated tickets (Mailing Address Below).
