About our Accelerator Program


Why did we start an Accelerator Program?
To equalize the playing field.
FundPlay Foundation’s “why” for launching its Accelerator is rooted in the belief that every child deserves access to the life-changing benefits of sports, but the organizations making this possible are often stretched thin and under-resourced.
The Accelerator was created to accelerate these sports-based youth development nonprofits by providing them with the mentorship, community, funding, service, and technology they need to thrive.
FundPlay recognizes that these organizations are not just running sports programs; they’re also delivering education, social services, and community development, often with limited support.
By launching the Accelerator, FundPlay aims to strengthen these “superheroes” so they can reach more kids, unlock new opportunities, and build sustainable impact.
