Next deadline for Fuel Up with Milk grants is June 9
Did you know that milk is nature’s sports drink? Milk, both white and chocolate, provides key nutrients needed after exercise. Because of that, dairy farm families in Colorado, Montana and Wyoming proudly support the Colorado High School Activities Association.
Would you like to see your athletes excel? If your student athletes aren’t fueling up with low-fat white or chocolate milk, this is a great opportunity to get started! Your team could win funds to provide FREE milk for a season.
- All applicants receive materials and resources for sharing the benefits of refueling with milk.
- Runner up school can receive: choice of soft-sided cooler(s) for transporting milk to practices and games or $100 cash to be used for the purchase of fluid milk.
- Two teams are chosen to receive Fuel Up with Milk Grants. Each recipient will receive:
- Cash to purchase milk (both white and chocolate) for your team to refuel after practices and games for the entire sport season. Cash value based on the size of the team applying for the grant ($40 per athlete).
- Soft-sided coolers for easy milk transport (perfect for travel days, practices and home games).
- Promotional items: Fuel Up with Milk banner (to hang at the home facility), 1 program ad, content for a PSA and educational materials for teams/athletes.
