Goals for Good

How it works

In partnership with United Way of Greater Knoxville, One Knox developed the Goals for Good platform:

• This season, at all 16 home games, One Knoxville will champion and support a Knoxville-area nonprofit.
• Fans and business partners can donate a dollar amount per goal scored.
• The more goals we score; the more money we raise; the more good we do!
• You can do a season-long pledge, or pick the causes you’re most passionate about!

Beyond fundraising, One Knox will champion and amplify the story of each nonprofit partner on matchdays.
