11 student-athletes working together on the soccer field. 11 seats in the classroom. 11 mentors for at-risk youth. A team of youth from more than 11 different nationalities. This is the #POWEROF11.

South Bronx United uses soccer as a tool for social change, aiming to help youth build character, teamwork, and leadership so they can succeed in high school, college, careers, their community and beyond. SBU strives to promote educational achievement, health and wellness, and character development through activities on and off the soccer field and to unite a diverse group of individuals and an incredibly diverse community toward common positive goals.

I've been involved with SBU since 2018, as both a girls U-19 soccer coach and a Supporter's Club Board Member. I've seen first hand the positive impact SBU has on the South Bronx community.

Now more than ever, SBU needs our help. Won't you help me raise funds to support the organization's academic, athletic, mentoring, leadership development, health and wellness promotion, and immigration legal services for South Bronx youth and their families? All proceeds will go directly towards SBU sustaining, strengthening, and expanding youth and community programs in the 2020-2021 year.

$11 (or more!) can make a difference.
