University of Colorado head men’s basketball coach Tad Boyle will headline a June 16 fundraising dinner supporting TLC Learning Center’s new Early Learning Collaborative, a major investment in inclusive early childhood education and pediatric therapy services for children and families across the region.
The event will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Fox Hill Club in Longmont and will give guests an inside look at CU basketball, along with conversation and a live question-and-answer session with Boyle.
Proceeds will support TLC Learning Center’s $17 million capital campaign for the Early Learning Collaborative, which opens June 8, 2026. The new center will expand access to inclusive early childhood education, pediatric therapies, family support, and professional training resources—helping more children enter school ready to learn and thrive.
“Coach Boyle’s support helps shine a spotlight on a project that will benefit children and families for years to come,” said Tim Waters, chair of TLC’s Capital Campaign Steering Committee. “We’ve raised $14.7 million toward our $17 million goal, and this event is an opportunity for donors and sponsors to help us close that gap and expand access to critical early learning and therapy services.”
Tickets are $100 per person. Sponsorships and reserved tables are also available. For tickets and additional event information, visit https://onecau.se/_kv5hd1
“This is more than a special evening for basketball fans—it’s a chance to invest in the future of children and families in our community,” said Matt Eldred, CEO of TLC Learning Center. “Every ticket, table, and sponsorship helps move this project forward and strengthens the support available to young children when it matters most.”
