Leveling the Playing Field, Inc.

Leveling the Playing Field works to locate children living under the poverty line who are not being given a equal chance at athletic participation. We recognize the importance sport can play in a child's life. Whether it is simply to bring that child joy within their adverse situation or allowing a child to use sport to learn extremly valubale life skills, sport is vitally important to young people. Once we have identified an area of need, we work within the community to locate various sources of used/excess sporting equipment. We place donation bins, host equipment drives, and reach out to collegiate and professional teams. These tactics not only collect equipment to fill this need but also involves a whole community in a fun community service project.
