Touchdown for Youth Returns to Coliseum:

USC and the Los Angeles Youth Council are teaming up for their annual “Touchdown For Youth” program that allows up to 2,000 of the area’s disadvantaged youngsters to attend the Trojans’ October 4 football game against Oregon.

The program is in its 16th year.

Donations are now being accepted. For every $30 tax- deductible contribution from an individual or corporation one youngster will be provided with a ticket to the game and refreshments. USC distributes the tickets to youth charities affiliated with the athletic department.

Anyone interested in supporting the program should call 213.482.6333.
