Beyond the Field

Supporting the Team That Makes a Difference

My wife and I are proud to support four incredible organizations, united by a single mission: to help more kids get in the game. Each of these groups provides unique opportunities for children to participate in youth sports and other activities, fostering a love for play and a sense of belonging. We invite you to explore their stories and consider joining us in our support, whether it's for one of these organizations or any other that helps youth in your community.

Play it Forward Logo

Play It Forward engages students in athletics by providing sporting equipment to deserving schools. Access to a quality physical education program improves all aspects of daily school activities.  Led entirely by kids, Play It Forward works to ensure that all students have sports equipment to play with and the ability to be active and have fun through sports.

Strong Girls United Logo

SG United Foundation's mission is to empower girls to be strong, confident, and resilient through sports, mentorship, and mental health programming. We believe physical activity, mental skills, strong mentorship, and community give girls what they need to succeed. Each component of our curriculum and programs is intentionally designed based on this principle and guided by our motto: strong bodies, kind hearts, and unstoppable minds.

Hand in Hand Logo

At Hand in Hand, we know that families step out of crisis when they are given support, hope and opportunity. It is our purpose to provide all three for the many children who cross our threshold. Since 2010, we have lived and breathed this purpose – working in tandem with exceptional community partners, donors and volunteers.

Ticket to Dream Logo

At the Ticket to Dream Foundation we are dedicated to creating hope and opportunity for foster children across the nation, so they can just be kids. To us, hope starts with having shoes and clothing that fit, lifting their self-esteem.
