Soccer in the Streets’ Post

Today you can make an enormous impact in the lives of aspiring young athletes in Colorado by making a donation to Chance Sports through Youth Sports Giving Day! Starting September 4th, all donations will be matched DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR - doubling your impact! For many kids, participating in competitive sports has a profound impact that lasts a lifetime. From improved physical and mental health to better grades in school and developing leadership skills, participation in sports - particularly competitive sports - can be a game changer. But we also know that the costs associated with such participation - from club fees and travel to new gear and uniforms - can be a barrier for entry for many families, leaving their athletes on the sidelines. That’s where CHANCE SPORTS steps in to help. By providing partial scholarships to families with financial need, we are removing barriers and supporting our young athletes in their desire to PLAY! Equal opportunity levels the playing field and makes it about talent and not access. #youthsportsgivingday

I wanted to take a moment to share something deeply personal and important to me. Seven months ago, I took a leap of faith and founded a manhood development/AAU basketball called the Dream Team. It was born out of a deep-seated belief that we can make a profound impact on the next generation, especially those who need it the most. Little did I know then that the Dream Team would grow to become something bigger and more impactful than I ever imagined. Our program is free for all players because we firmly believe that every child deserves access to opportunities, regardless of their background. However, as we all know, youth sports come with financial costs. Despite facing financial challenges, we have achieved some remarkable successes. When we began, the average GPA of our players was 2.6. Today, after just seven months, it stands at an impressive 3.12. These are not just numbers; they represent the tangible difference we are making in the lives of these young individuals. I believe in the power of community and collective action. Currently our programs doesn’t have the funds to sustain this program, so we need your help. You can donate and receive popcorn. We get 50% of the proceeds or you can donate directly. https://lnkd.in/gbKKx53v CLICK HERE TO DONATE: https://lnkd.in/gtV5EnRE Click on page for link.

Watching Intentional Sports grow from an idea to a bustling campus serving 2500 humans a week has been an emotional experience. It's clear that places like this are badly needed- not only in Chicago but in urban centers throughout the country. As a nonprofit, we need help. I believe we will one day "crack the code" to make this mission self-sustaining, but for now, we still rely upon everyday heroes making tax-deductible contributions so that we can provide all of our free and low-cost programs to kids who otherwise wouldn't have positive opportunities to PLAY. Three ways to help: 1) Give today. Either at intentionalsports.org, click DONATE, or for larger gifts and ACH/wires, please message me, and I'll connect with you directly. 2) Consider becoming a Monthly Donor. From $5/month to $5000/month - every dollar will help us get closer to breaking even in our budget. 3) and/or Spread the word. Please. As a private 501c3 who gets no help from the government, we depend upon great humans connecting us with other great humans! We're just getting started...
