Dear Friends,
At the U.S. Soccer Foundation we believe that, if given a chance, children in vulnerable communities can overcome life’s many challenges — the numbing statistics on crime, educational performance and obesity that say the odds of a healthy, happy and productive life are stacked against them. Through efforts like our Soccer for Success program, we provide these children with opportunities to move forward and achieve their goals.
We give children the game of soccer. Soccer gives them the motivation to finish a homework assignment or study for a test. Soccer gives them the physical activity they need to stay healthy and fit. And soccer gives them trained and caring coaches who are committed to helping them develop both soccer skills and life skills they will need to secure a better future.
Soccer for Success provides free after-school soccer programming to thousands of children in grades K-8, offering them a safe environment to exercise daily, work with mentors and develop important life skills. Meet some of the children in the soccer for success program (Video)!
Help us expand the Soccer for Success program to cities across the United States. A donation of just $250 can provide one player with a full year of programming, equipment, instruction and mentors to help them succeed.
