Game-Winning Drive: College 1 Piece of Sports Gear for Kids in Underserved Communities

Kids from underserved communities are 50% less likely to play sports. One reason is that equipment is too expensive to afford. Look in your closet or garage for 1 ball, bat, glove, stick, or any other sports gear. Then donate your item to a local community center (DoSomething will give you the address of the closest one!). You’ll be helping kids play more sports, which improves their well-being, and you’ll automatically be entered to win the scholarship.

Award: $5,000
