Helping Kids Chase Their Dreams

Empowering Youth Through Sports

The Sandlot Youth Foundation is a Texas 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering and supporting youth through their pursuit of sports. We believe that sports provide a vital platform for building character, fostering teamwork, and instilling life-long values of perseverance, leadership, and community.

Our Mission

At the Sandlot Youth Foundation, our mission is simple but powerful: to ensure every young person has access to the resources, mentorship, and opportunities they need to succeed both on and off the field. We strive to break down barriers to entry in sports participation, making sure no child is left on the sidelines due to economic, social, or accessibility challenges.

What We Do

•. Financial Assistance & Scholarships: We provide grants and scholarships to cover sports equipment, team fees, travel costs, and other expenses that may prevent youth from participating.

•. Mentorship & Skill Development: Through workshops, clinics, and one-on-one mentorships, we help young athletes enhance their skills, gain confidence, and learn essential life lessons.

•. Community Programs: We collaborate with local schools, sports, and community organizations to help encourage participate in sports aimed at fostering unity and inclusivity.


”Empowering kids to chase their sports dreams is not just about nurturing talent; it's about instilling life skills, confidence, and resilience that will benefit them for years to come. At Sandlot Youth Foundation, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to pursue their passion, regardless of their background.”
