CO Elevation FC Welcomes Partnership With The Gift of Soccer Foundation

Layla Carrero • March 26, 2026

A new community partner, making a difference for kids around the world.

The Gift of Soccer Foundation collects and redistributes gently used soccer gear and resources to children locally, regionally, and worldwide. With financial support, the Foundation is able to collect, repurpose, and deliver quality equipment—giving kids the opportunity to learn, play, and grow through the game.

 

In addition to distributing gear, the Foundation organizes professional soccer clinics and local outreach efforts that strengthen communities, build confidence, and create lasting connections. By partnering with humanitarian organizations, the Foundation helps them build trust within the communities they serve—using soccer to bring joy to children while supporting broader goals such as improved health, education, and access to essential services.

 

To date, The Gift of Soccer Foundation has delivered 88,750+ pieces of soccer gear to 27 countries across six continents. This impact has been made possible through donations from 126+ locations across the United States and through 55 major donation initiatives.


CO Elevation FC feels this partnership aligns with our mission and values in development opportunities for kids around the world. The goal is to expand access to the game and provide meaningful impact on all communities. This partnership will serve annually and we cannot wait to see the impact our Highlands Ranch community will provide to players around the world!
