Fanthropy

Fanthropy connects sports fans to meaningful volunteer opportunities, helping them give back to their communities while earning exciting rewards.
Fanthropy Vision
Volunteerism is at an all-time low. In Nevada, fewer than 1 in 5 people volunteer. Our research shows that 80% of volunteers would be more active if they could see their impact and be recognized for it.
Think about the untapped resources in our sports community — unsold tickets, leftover merch, and the powerful influence of players and fans. What if we turned these into fuel for good?

Built at the intersection of sports, service, and innovation, Fanthropy is a growing movement focused on turning fandom into fuel for good. We believe that community engagement should be easy, rewarding, and personal — and that everyone should feel proud of the difference they’re making.
