Good Sports

The benefits of youth participation in sports are clear, yet some kids are unfortunately sidelined from such activities due to a lack of resources. To play organized sports, children need equipment and apparel, among other items. Costs put a catcher’s mitt, soccer ball, or hockey stick out of reach for many underprivileged children. That’s why in 2003, Christy Keswick and Melissa Harper (Co-Founder & CEO) set out to ensure more kids could take a swing at the valuable opportunities offered by sports. They reached out to a local basketball manufacturer that had an excess of 500 basketballs and wanted to give back to the community, but had no process through which to donate equipment. Good Sports offered to take the balls and deliver them to youth organizations, where young people who needed them would benefit.
