“LPF’s donation has positively impacted hundreds of children who otherwise would not have had the opportunity to get the supplies and practice their favorite sport. Thanks to LPF, hundreds of children from low-income families now play baseball, soccer, and other sports.”

This is why we do what we do…
“LPF’s donations have allowed us to provide families (youth) with [sports] equipment that they might not otherwise be able to afford. We serve a population of families, where food is the greatest need, and therefore, playing sports & being able to afford equipment is tough! During our community outreach events, and after school family engagement programming (Transforming Tuesdays) families are grateful for the opportunity to be able to pick up these much desired items for free! Thank you for being available to us, so that we can provide hope to families!”

Attorney
Board Chair
Tracy Scarrow is a lawyer and has worked for over 25 years in a variety of positions in the federal government.
While raising two great kids and working, she has also volunteered countless hours in the community — with her kids’ schools; an organization dedicated to providing meals and housing for D.C.’s homeless; an organization that distributes funds to families touched by pediatric cancer; her neighborhood park; and her kids’ sports teams.
Tracy has held various positions on non-profit boards and first learned of Leveling the Playing Field in a Washington Post article. Tracy was thrilled to find LPF, a home for the ever growing collection of excess sports equipment in her neighborhood, and an outlet for her continued desire to serve her community. She joined the Board in 2016 and currently serves as Board Chair.
Growing up, Tracy played soccer, ran cross country, and was an avid skier. But, Tracy and her husband are more in awe of their kids who both play multiple sports. Sports have played such a large part in Tracy’s family’s life, that it is important for her to help provide other children with the same athletic opportunities. Tracy is doing her part to help level the playing field.
