UFC PARTNERS WITH BUD LIGHT AND ANTHEM SNACKS TO RAISE AND DONATE $50,000 TO BENEFIT FOLDS OF HONOR’S SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS WHILE COMMEMORATING VETERANS DAY

UFC raised the funds via an international online ticket sweepstakes for an all-expenses paid trip to New York to sit in UFC President & CEO Dana White’s VIP seats during UFC 309: JONES vs. MIOCIC, which took place at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, November 16.

The month-long campaign, administered across the AllTroo fundraising platform, was presented in partnership with Bud Light, UFC’s global beer partner, and Anthem Snacks, a SOF combat Veteran-owned and operated premium Meat Snack company.

Both organizations are also charitable partners with Folds of Honor, and the sweepstakes marked UFC’s first with Bud Light and second with Anthem Snacks.

“It was a privilege to work with UFC in support of the incredible work that Folds of Honor provides for the military and first responder community through educational scholarships,” said Nate Kouhana, CEO + Founder Anthem Snacks.

All funds raised will be split equally between Folds of Honor’s Military and First Responder scholarship programs. 

"We are truly honored to serve alongside incredible partners like UFC, Anthem, and Bud Light, as we provide life-changing educational scholarships to the courageous military and first responder families who serve and protect our nation. This year, Folds of Honor awarded 10,000 scholarships, totaling nearly $55 million – investing in the futures of those who sacrifice so much for our safety and freedom."

Established in 2007, Folds of Honor is a nonprofit organization that provides educational scholarships to the spouses and children of fallen or disabled military and first responders. To date, Folds of Honor have awarded more than 62,000 educational scholarships, valued at $290 million, that support private school tuition or tutoring in grades K-12, tuition for college, technical or trade school, and post-graduate work, including a master’s degree, doctorate, or professional programs.
