Fundraise for SWB

When your passion meets purpose, the impact is real.

For many of the youth we serve, the soccer pitch is the first place they feel seen, heard, and valued.

 

Your support helps create those moments while showing the world that soccer has the power to change lives.

You can start today with 3 easy steps...

Start a Fundraiser. Make an Impact.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, honoring a milestone, or just passionate about creating change, starting a fundraiser is a powerful way to get involved—and it’s easier than you might think.

1

Pick a moment that matters

Turn your birthday, graduation, holiday, pickup game (or any day) into something bigger. No idea is too small when it comes from the heart.

2

Make it yours

Set up your personalized fundraising page in minutes. Add a photo, share your “why,” and set a goal. Need help? We’ve got your back.

3

Invite others to be part of the story

Share your fundraiser with friends and family by email, social media, and more. Keep the momentum going with updates along the way.

Your Donations at Work

Every dollar you raise supports real moments of opportunity, growth, and belonging.

Here are a few ways your effort helps move the mission forward!

Get Inspired!

Every fundraiser starts with one simple thing: a reason to care.

Here are some ways to turn that into action.

Birthday Celebrations

Celebrate your big day by giving back. Ask for donations instead of gifts and make a difference with every candle.

Holiday Giving

Turn a season of giving into a season of impact. Invite your community to support SWB as part of your year-end or holiday traditions.

Honor Somebody Special

Dedicate your fundraiser to someone special. It’s a thoughtful way to celebrate their life, values, and legacy.

Run, Walk, or Ride

Set a personal goal—5K, 10K, or a month of movement—and invite others to cheer you on with donations.

Host a Tournament

Bring people together through the game you love. Organize a 5-a-side, futsal, or pickup match that gives back.

Sweat for Change

Need some extra motivation behind your miles? Dedicate your athletic event (running, cycling, triathlon) to Soccer Without Borders. Each year SWB sponsors teams for several races including the New York City Marathon, Falmouth (MA) Road Race, and the Baltimore 10 Miler.
