Leveling the Playing Field (LPF) gives youth from underserved communities the opportunity to enjoy the mental and physical benefits of sports participation. We do so by gathering new and used sporting equipment from the community and stocking a well-organized warehouse with head-to-toe needs for local coaches to "shop" for their teams at no cost. Our free equipment allows programs to pass on savings to families who need it most: lowering registration fees, expanding scholarship programs and otherwise enhancing or expanding their athletic and programmatic offerings. Essentially, we operate a food bank model, but for sports equipment.
