Gridiron Team SupportYouth Football Fund
A community fund for youth football

Every kid deserves
a shot.

Youth football builds discipline, teamwork, and confidence — but gear, fees, and travel add up fast. Your donation covers those real costs, so no kid is left on the sideline because of money.

How it works

About

Football shouldn't depend on your wallet

Gridiron Team Support (GTS) is a community-driven fund — which means every dollar comes from people like you. Your gift covers the everyday costs of playing, so the only thing a kid has to worry about is showing up.

Equipment & safety gear

Helmets, pads, and proper-fitting gear are the foundation of a safe season — and often the first thing families struggle to afford.

Fees & scholarships

Registration, league dues, and camp fees shouldn't be a barrier. Your gift helps cover them so no player gets turned away.

Camps, coaching & field time

Great coaching and consistent practice time are what turn interest into growth. Donations help fund the resources behind them.

What we do

We close the gap

The lesson football teaches — show up, work hard, support your teammates — shouldn't be reserved for the families who can afford it. Your donation fills the gap between what a season costs and what a family can pay.
