Starfinder awarded 2020 Sports 4 Life Grant by Women’s Sports Foundation and espnW
July 13, 2020
Starfinder is excited to be named a 2020 Sports 4 Life grant recipient!
The Womens Sports Foundation and espnW began the nationwide initiative in 2014 to to increase participation and retention of African-American and Hispanic girls in youth sports programs.
The Sports 4 Life program, cofounded by the WSF and espnW, supports organizations that provide developmental youth sports opportunities to girls of color to help them develop in four foundational areas: leadership, self-esteem, confidence and perseverance – with the expectation that growth in these areas will also support girls’ physical and emotional health and academic success.
This year’s funding will help more than 7,700 girls – including those in our program! – unlock their potential through sport.
