A MESSAGE FROM UNITED SOCCER COACHES
40 million people relied on food banks in the U.S. prior to the pandemic - including more than 11 million children and nearly 5.4 million seniors. Since the pandemic, over 30 million Americans have lost their jobs and many are now relying on food banks. Over 500 Division I men and women's soccer programs are uniting along with the soccer communities across America to take action against hunger.
