Share Our Mission Within the Community

Help us spread the word! By sharing G4K’s mission with your network -whether it’s through social media, word of mouth, or community boards- you’re helping us reach more potential donors, volunteers, and coaches who could benefit from our support. Every share brings us closer to ensuring that all young athletes have the gear they need to succeed.

Check out our associated community initiatives and impact through our social media: 

Celebrate Coaches & Support Teams

Know a coach, school, or team that deserves recognition or could benefit from our support? Get in touch with us! We welcome nominations through our “Nominate a Coach” form, which allows coaches to nominate themselves or be nominated by someone else. This process helps us grow our network of “hero coaches” and make a lasting impact. Whether you're nominating a Hero Coach to celebrate their contributions or to highlight their needs, the Nominate a Coach form serves both purposes—helping us honor and support those making a difference.

 

Celebrating Hero Coaches

At the heart of our community initiative is the mission to celebrate the true heroes of youth sports—dedicated coaches who go above and beyond to inspire, mentor, and support their players both on and off the field. We shine a spotlight on these unsung champions by sharing their stories on our main page, showcasing the positive impact they make within their communities. By nominating a Hero Coach, you help us recognize their dedication, leadership, and lasting influence. Through this initiative, we aim to build a stronger, more connected community that values and uplifts those who shape the future of youth sports.

Supporting Coaches and Teams in Need

We are equally committed to ensuring that no child is left behind due to a lack of resources. Our platform highlights specific coaches' needs on individual landing pages, allowing the community to rally around requests ranging from individual players to entire teams and even larger-scale facility improvements. These shareable pages make it easy for coaches to raise awareness and connect with supporters, providing a direct and impactful way for the community to help. 

Monetary Donation

Make a financial contribution to support young athletes and our mentoring program. This is a great low-commitment way to help support our mission and make a difference. Every little bit counts, and we appreciate any support you can offer. You are directly helping us expand our reach and maximize our impact, ensuring that every coach and player receives the opportunities they deserve. We accept one-time, monthly, and annual donations.

Please note you may also donate directly to “Coaches in Need” on coach specific landing pages, which can all be found on the G4K Home Page. Every dollar makes a difference.

Gear 4 Kids

Gear 4 Kids is a community-driven initiative dedicated to supporting youth sports by highlighting local hero coaches and ensuring that teams have the equipment they need to succeed. We focus on bridging the gap for athletes in underfunded areas by connecting coaches who have specific needs with generous donors willing to provide monetary donations for various sports gear. Through our platform, we shine a spotlight on coaches making a difference in their communities while facilitating donations for essential equipment, ensuring that every young athlete has the opportunity to play, grow, and thrive. Here at G4K, we believe a lack of gear should never stop someone from enjoying the sport they love!
