Improve athletes' training conditions and socioeconomic position 

The Finnish Olympic Committee Support Foundation (Olympic Fund) was established in 2018. The new Olympic Fund provides promising athletes with genuine opportunities to achieve international success.The fund proceeds are used to improve athletes' training conditions and socioeconomic position and support coaching activities.Internationally competitive sports academies offer an environment where athletes can focus on what matters.  The Olympic Fund provides businesses with an entirely new way of supporting Finnish top level sports. The sums donated by businesses increase the fund's capital, and the returns on invested capital are used to coach promising athletes and improving their training conditions. The fund's basic capital will never be directly used, so the donation will provide a permanent benefit. The added support ensures that athletes have the opportunity to reach the very top of their respective sports. Finland needs internationally competitive athletes, as they serve as role models for young people. International success in sports also fosters a sense of unity and confidence in the future among the Finnish population. A donation to the Olympic Fund is a gift to the future of Finnish sports and society at large.

KEY STATISTICS
Nearly 3 million NJ residents—or one-third of the state—live in or below the poverty line -15% are children (Source: Legal Services of New Jersey)

Only 22% of kids living in poverty get an opportunity to play sports.(Source: The Aspen Institute, Project Play)

The shift from low-cost or free, school or town-run recreation programs to the pay-to-play model across the US began around 2008, as cities and municipalities slashed recreation budgets and never restored them. Now 80% are pay-to-play (Source: John Engh, COO of the National Alliance for Youth Sports)

We can’t fully rely on schools - In 2022, the Physical Activity Alliance gave schools nationwide a grade of D– for physical fitness, reflecting MINIMAL access to regular physical education classes, gym time and equipment.
Research shows that participating in sports can lead to immediate and long-term benefits for youth, their families and communities. 

OUR VISION
To provide athletic opportunities to all kids, creating places of organic integration, where friendship replaces economic and racial differences and the collective desire to play a sport they love.
We want to address equality and inclusion at every level, so that the underserved will not be left out of youth sports.
