This post, "US Soccer Makes Pride Month Donation to You Can Play," originated from lgbt.soccer.
US Soccer will donate over $65,000 to the You Can Play project after celebrating a big LGBT Pride Month in June.
The donation comes from the sale of US Soccer pride hats and jerseys. Both the US Men’s and Women’s National Teams also wore pride jerseys at June friendlies that were auctioned to benefit You Can Play.
The You Can Play project works for the inclusion of LGBT athletes in all areas of athletics. This big donation is well-timed as they gear up for a new school year around the country. It’s bound to be another school year full of athletes showing their support for the LGBT community through You Can Play and You Can Play helping more young athletes be themselves as they participate in the sports they love.
Thank you for a great Pride Month, US Soccer, and for your ever-growing support of the LGBT community.
