�°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis Children’s Hospital hopes to shoot a goal worth $20,000 at the Sacramento Republic FC’s Aug. 22 game — and the hospital needs our help to do it.

Not on the soccer pitch, but as ticket buyers for the Saturday night game. Here’s how the promotion works: Sac Republic will donate $20 to the hospital for every ticket sold to buyers who use this and the promotion code KIDS, up to a maximum donation of $20,000.

But get this: Once ticket sales hit 500 (worth a $10,000 donation), Sac Republic is prepared to double its donation to $20,000 as soon as someone buys ticket No. 501.

The hospital is sweetening the deal by offering a replica soccer jersey T-shirt with each ticket purchase, while the T-shirt supply lasts. The shirts will be distributed Aug. 13 at the hospital’s annual summer concert, a free event for the community; and at the Aug. 22 game. Proof of ticket purchase required.

The soccer game is scheduled for 8 p.m. at Bonney Field at Cal Expo. Sac Republic will take on Real Monarchs SLC of Salt Lake City in a United Soccer League match-up.

Sac Republic spokesperson Erika Bjork said: “�°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis Children’s Hospital changes lives for the better each and every day for our region. Our pride in partnering with such an amazing medical center goes beyond wearing �°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis Children’s Hospital across our kits and extends to promotions such as these that improve the health and lives of children.”
