SALT LAKE CITY and SEATTLE, Aug. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- On Thursday, August 29th, 5 For The Fight, a global movement inviting everyone to give $5 for the fight against cancer, will be front and center during the BYU-Utah season opener, broadcast on ESPN.
The crowdfunding organization, started by Qualtrics in 2016, brings 5 For The Fight Nights to sporting events to dedicate moments throughout the game to honor those affected by cancer, and to encourage fans to join the fight against this devastating disease.
"5 For The Fight is something everyone - whether you wear red or blue - can unite around. Our goal is to give people an opportunity to play a role, no matter how big or small, in the fight against cancer," said Lori Morency Kun, Head of Social Impact, Qualtrics. "We are excited to bring this fight to one of the most classic rivalries in college football."
The BYU-Utah game is the first 5 For The Fight Night of the college football season. Fans will participate in an in-game moment during the first quarter with a pom pom giveaway. Student athletes and coaching staff will share their personal stories about whom they are dedicating their $5.
