PLAY Chattanooga discovered that by changing the relationship between law-enforcement and inner-city youth through sports, we can transform lives in Chattanooga. With several events under their belts they applied for a grant to fund a Spring Flag Football league. Lead by our local police officers and firefighters, kids will be lead to make great life choices, develop leadership characteristics and transform the perception of law enforcement in their communities.
What will the money go towards? PLAY Chattanooga plans to use the money to pay their dedicated coaches and referees. Funds will also be used for equipment such as cleats, league apparel, and travel to compete with out-of-town teams. Our $1,500 grant was matched 50% (another $750 for you math challenged friends) by Causeway, so in total the impact for PLAY is $2,250. Want to help? You can! DONATE HERE.
