History

Founded in 2002, United for D.C. is a 501(c)3 organization committed to supporting programs and organizations that help us achieve our mission. Over the years, we have donated thousands of volunteer hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars while touching the lives of countless children.

Key United for D.C. Highlights from 2009

  • More than 6,000 children will attend D.C. United games in 2009 via Kicks for Kids, each receiving tickets to a game, hotdogs, chips and sodas, pom poms, behind-the-bench seating, player autographs and more.
  • United Reads expands programming to include a Prince Georges County school in addition to the 6 local D.C. schools in which we currently work.
  • United Soccer Club expands from seven to ten sites, providing over 300 youth the opportunity to participate in after school soccer clinics. The program also will submit a co-ed Under 10 team in the Soccer on the Hill league in the spring and fall season as well as two co-ed teams in the Takoma Soccer League in the Under 8 and Under 12 age groups.
