The Atlanta United Community Fund (AUCF), in partnership with the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), is launching the next phase of its statewide soccer mini-pitch program, with the goal of constructing up to 100 mini-pitches across Georgia:
Soccer Field Development: Construction of mini-pitches in under-resourced communities in Georgia to increase access to safe sports activities, specifically soccer, for youth across the state
Match Funding: The grant requires a minimum community local match (cash or in-kind donation) of one dollar for every AUCF dollar (1:1) of up to $100,000.
Focus:
To provide under-resourced communities in Georgia the financial and technical assistance to improve the quality, safety, and accessibility of local mini-pitch soccer fields.
To develop mini-pitch soccer fields with input from local stakeholders that serve the needs of the community.
To build interest and excitement for the game of soccer across Georgia communities.
