About Us

  The 7 Strong Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving lives through access to sports. Our mission is to provide young people with meaningful opportunities to build character and develop essential life skills, including teamwork, confidence, and resilience. Research consistently demonstrates that youth who participate in sports are more likely to achieve positive long-term outcomes, with athletics serving as a proven pathway to active, healthy lifestyles.

​

  However, the cost of participation in youth sports continues to rise, creating significant barriers for low-income families. At the same time, many children are leaving sports by the age of 11—often due to financial constraints, limited access, or burnout.

​

  Founded in 2026, the 7 Strong Foundation was established to address these challenges and expand equitable access to girls youth athletics. Through our grant program, we provide financial assistance to our girls and their families as well as communties in need, helping to cover registration fees, equipment, travel, and other related expenses. In addition, our education initiatives support coaches, parents, and athletes by promoting pride, passion and persistence through high-quality sports experiences. These programs emphasize effective motivation strategies, life skills development, and health and wellness practices, including injury prevention.
