Programs
Community Heroes Appreciation:
In partnership with Lenovo, NC Courage has been involved in a new Community Heroes Appreciation Program! As the official technology partner of NCFC and the NC Courage, Lenovo aligns with the club’s mission to give back to those who serve the local community, while also providing quality educational opportunities for future community leaders.
The Community Heroes Appreciation Program will recognize community heroes in the triangle community at various NC Courage and NCFC matches throughout the season. Through this program, one-hundred tickets to one (1) game each month will be donated to military personnel, first responders, teachers and healthcare professionals, in addition to season-long special discounts and in-game recognition.
