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 youth 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!

We are committed to ensuring that no child is left behind due to a lack of resources. Our approach is designed to meet the unique needs of teams, coaches, and individual players. We highlight specific coaches’ needs for their teams on individual landing pages, allowing the community to rally around their requests, ranging from individual players to entire teams, and even larger-scale facility improvements in some cases. These personalized shareable pages serve as a powerful platform for coaches to raise awareness and connect with supporters, making it easy for their message to be spread throughout the broader community. If you know of any coaches with potential needs, please feel welcome to nominate them above or share our page!

We believe that the true heroes of youth sports are the dedicated coaches who go above and beyond to inspire, mentor, and support their players both on and off the field. Our mission is to celebrate these unsung champions by sharing their stories, highlighting the positive impact they make in their communities, and ensuring their teams have the necessary resources to thrive. By nominating a Hero Coach, you help us shine a spotlight on those who work tirelessly to make a difference, recognizing their dedication, leadership, and impact.

Dedicated officials uphold the integrity of the game. They help keep it fun by ensuring a fair and safe environment for everyone and making sure all are included. By sharing their stories, we aim to highlight their commitment and positive influence on athletes, the game, and everyone who participates. Nominating a Hero Official helps us shine a light on those who work diligently to ensure the game is safe, fun, and fair.

At Gear 4 Kids, we take pride in using innovative technology to make a real difference in our community, and Coach Mike Rosenband’s story launch marks an exciting milestone. Powered by Technology 4 Causes and leveraging tools donated by Dicorp, we have successfully built our very first "Coach in Need" landing page—a personalized platform to highlight Coach Mike’s needs and help his team thrive.
The success of the page starts with the dedication of our student interns, who traveled to Carver Vocational High School to conduct interviews with Coach Mike, capturing his story and his team’s challenges. The Transformation Guild interns built and configured a fully customized, shareable page tailored to Coach Mike’s needs. The result is a platform where he can spread the word about his team’s goals and challenges, rallying the community for support in a way that’s never been easier or more impactful.
Since launching the page, it has already garnered significant traffic, with an increasing number of visitors learning about Coach Mike’s team and mission. This visibility gives us confidence that community support will help him accomplish his goals, equipping his players with the facilities they need.
The successful launch of Coach Mike’s landing page marks an exciting step forward in connecting community heroes with the resources they need. By blending innovative technology, heartfelt storytelling, and community-driven support, our newest landing page paves the way for a brighter future; We can’t wait to celebrate even more success stories soon!

Gear 4 Kids is still in its early stages, so we don’t have many success stories to share just yet, but we’re excited to embark on this journey of supporting local teams and athletes in need. As we continue to grow, we look forward to continuing to share more inspiring stories here on our site, showcasing how community support has empowered local teams. We’re thrilled to see what the future holds and can’t wait to celebrate the transformative impact each donation makes.
