Your contribution helps grow the game, break down barriers, and bring lacrosse to more Pittsburgh youth

Every Kid Deserves a Chance to Play

Lacrosse isn't just a game—it's an opportunity. A chance to learn teamwork, embrace competition, and discover personal strength. At City of Bridges Lacrosse Foundation, we believe that every child should have the opportunity to step onto the field, no matter their background or circumstances.

We’re breaking down barriers. We’re fighting for access. We’re providing equipment, coaching, and support, ensuring that financial constraints don’t keep our youth from chasing their dreams. Our mission is simple yet powerful: every kid deserves a chance to play.

Lacrosse is a fast-growing sport, but in Pittsburgh, many young athletes don’t have access to the equipment, coaching, and opportunities they need to play. Right now, only one public school in Pittsburgh offers varsity lacrosse. We're here to change that.

Join us in championing the next generation of athletes. Together, we can build a community where every child has the chance to thrive through the sport of lacrosse. Let’s make sure no child is left behind. Let’s give every kid the chance to create memories, friendships, and a bright future on the field.

Get involved. Make a difference.

Every goal we score starts with your support

Why give?

  • Lacrosse for All

    Right now, only one Pittsburgh public school offers varsity lacrosse. Your donation helps bring the sport to more kids who wouldn’t otherwise have the chance to play.

  • Breaking barriers

    As too many players and parents know, lacrosse is an expensive sport. We aim to provide free equipment, coaching, and playing opportunities to ensure cost isn’t a roadblock for young athletes.

  • Building Future Champions

    Beyond the game, lacrosse teaches discipline, teamwork, and leadership. Your support helps develop the next generation of confident, skilled players

We appreciate any support you are able to offer. We also are open to volunteer opportunities and other non-monetary support methods. Please review our Disclaimer regarding 501c(3) Status at the bottom of the page and if you would like to donate we cannot thank you enough for your support!
