Open Field

15 years of Open Field programs = thousands of lives impacted. Now, we’re building for the future. For every young person who’s stepped onto the field, found a mentor, and taken a step toward their future—we’re here to make sure the next 15 years bring even more opportunities for the next generation. ?? $30k in 30 days. That’s our goal. Every $1,000 raised represents a year of impact and a promise that we’re not slowing down. Your support means more programs, more scholarships, and more life-changing moments—on and off the field. The next 15 years start now.
