Overview

At Caris Sports Foundation, we believe in the power of sports and the many benefits that team sports provide. We believe that every child who wants to participate in sports should have the opportunity to do so. Further, we believe that economic barriers should not prevent youth from taking part in the sports they love. Financially disadvantaged children should not be kept off the playing field. We founded Caris Sports Foundation as a 501(c)(3) organization specifically to address these beliefs.

 

Our mission is to give youth the opportunity to participate in organized sports by removing financial obstacles that keep themon the sidelines. We are dedicated to that effort through providing financial support to kids who need assistance for recreational or competitive sports.

 

Our vision is to give every student athlete who wants to take part in sports the opportunity to get on the playing field.

Our Purpose

Caris Sports Foundation was founded in 2019 to help kids and their families meet the costs associated with recreational and competitive sports.

 

We are well aware of the fees involved in team sports. Team fees, equipment, uniforms, travel expenses, and other related costs all add up. Some families can afford it; others can not. However, access to sports should not be limited to those whohave the financial resources to play. Income affects sports participation. Children who play more, come from families that can afford more. Only 34% of kids ages 6 to 12 from homes with incomes of $25,000 or less played team sports compared to 69%of kids from home with incomes of $100,000 or more.*

 

Organized sports should not price out kids who can benefit from the camaraderie, competition, challenges, personal growth, and accomplishments that sports offer. Caris Sports Foundation and its supporters provide financial support to cover those expenses. By taking the money problem out of the equation, we help young athletes, from kindergarten through high school, get out on the playing field.

 

Caris Sports Foundation’s current activities are limited to Arizona; however, we will soon be expanding to other regions.
