We’re excited to share that Refugee Education & Adventure CHallenge (REACH) has been awarded a grant from Laureus USA as one of 41 organizations in Illinois who are intentionally using sport as a tool for youth development and violence prevention. Through this government-funded program, the first of its kind in Illinois, more than 15,000 kids in Chicago and across the state will receive access to safe, inclusive, and supportive youth sport programs. Check out the press release.
Thank you to Senator Cristina Pacione-Zayas, Representative Kam Buckner, and the other sponsors of this Bill for championing this important funding opportunity and helping to increase access and equity in youth sport. #SportForGood
