Ent Credit Union and Denver Broncos kick off second season of Enterception program to benefit Children’s Hospital Colorado

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – Ent Credit Union, Colorado's leading credit union and the Official Banking Partner of the Denver Broncos, is proud to announce the return of Enterception, a season-long charitable initiative that turns the Broncos' defensive highlights into hope for kids served by Children's Hospital Colorado.

"Broncos fans already have plenty to cheer about with one of the league's top-ranked defenses," said Chad Graves, CEO of Ent Credit Union. "Now, every interception means more than just a momentum shift, it's a meaningful moment for a child's health. Ent is proud to continue this impactful program and deeply grateful to Pat Surtain II and the Broncos defense for helping us make a real difference in the lives of Colorado families."

Through this program, Ent donates $1,000 to Children's Hospital Colorado for every Broncos interception. When the Broncos score a pick six, the donation jumps to $6,000. In the inaugural 2024 season of Enterception, at total of $38,000 was donated, driven by the elite performance of Pat Surtain II, the Broncos' star cornerback and 2024 Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year. In the first preseason game of the 2025 season, the Broncos notched three interceptions, already adding $3,000 to this year's impact.

"It means a lot to know that our work on the field is helping kids off the field," said Pat Surtain II. "Every time we complete an interception, we're not just helping our team, we're helping families across Colorado, and being able to do it with humility and grace, that really helps lift all people up."

The impact of these donations is tangible. They can help fund child life specialists who provide emotional support and therapeutic play during hospital stays, support advanced pediatric research, or help cover critical treatments for children whose families are unable to pay. The $38,000 raised last season helped expand access to care and support services for families across the region.

"The Enterception initiative is a real win for pediatric healthcare throughout our region," said Jen Darling, President and CEO of the Children's Hospital Colorado Foundation. "We're grateful for Ent's longstanding philanthropic partnership and the Broncos' commitment to our community."

As the Broncos prepare for the 2025 season, Ent continues to deepen its commitment to Broncos Country through a wide range of initiatives, including financial education, exclusive fan experiences, community outreach, and charitable giving. Enterception is one of many ways Ent and the Broncos are teaming up to support Colorado communities, especially children and families.
