D.C. United in the Community

D.C. United is dedicated to enriching the lives of individuals and youth across the DMV through service, leadership, and the power of soccer. By partnering with local nonprofits and championing meaningful initiatives, we strive to build stronger, more connected communities. Our commitment is rooted in three core values: Empowerment, Opportunity, and Service—guiding us as we inspire change and create lasting impact.

Empowerment

• Growing the game of soccer with free programming, quality fields and exposing groups to our great game
• Creating a path for educational access and success including mentoring, professional coaching and skills training
• Providing health, fitness and mental health programming and resources

Opportunity

• Offering programming to foster upward mobility and economic empowerment
• Fostering and supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the DMV and within the game of soccer 

Service

• Honoring and celebrating those who have served others by partnering with organizations who support military, veterans, teachers, frontline workers, social workers, first responders and their families
• Strengthening communities through our commitment to service and volunteerism
