SPORTS HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE LIVESIt's more than just a game. Through sports, youth learn teamwork, fitness principles, responsibility, trust, resilience, humility, empathy, and how to belong to a community. It's proven that children who play sports experience life-long physical and mental health benefits, and are more successful academically and eventual careers.
We believe that every child deserves a chance to experience the full spectrum of what sports can offer. |
SHAREWAVES' MISSION IS TO ADVANCE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR EVERY CHILD TO EXPERIENCE THE LIFE-ENRICHING POWER OF SPORTS.
THE PROBLEMMany challenges prevent kids from participating in and staying engaged in sports, including inadequate funding, lack of equipment, unqualified coaching, and deteriorating facilities.We are deeply concerned about the inequalities facing children, especially those in high-risk environments with limited access to extracurricular activities and safe, reliable care options.
The gap between the “haves” and “have-nots” continues to widen, leaving low-income families struggling to find opportunities that keep their children safe, engaged, and active. |
OFFERING WAVES OF SUPPORTTogether with dedicated partners like you, we are creating a community where every child has equitable opportunities for physical activity, exercise, and meaningful sports experiences. By working side-by-side, we’re ensuring that all kids, regardless of background, can thrive through the power of play.
