Baltimore, MD

In January 2018, LPF expanded to a second warehouse in Hampden to better serve the Baltimore area. LPF Baltimore hit the ground running and quickly mobilized local schools, sports leagues, businesses, and families to donate their unused sporting equipment to help local kids in need. By the end of its second year, LPF Baltimore had collected over $1 million worth of sporting equipment, engaged 500+ volunteers, and distributed over $1 million worth of sporting equipment to 188 unique programs in need.

There’s nothing quite like Friday Night Lights in There’s nothing quite like Friday Night Lights in the fall. 🏈✨ We want to send a huge shoutout to all the athletes, coaches, and programs across our communities as they take the field each week. We’re cheering you on every step of the way! Equal access to sports starts with having the right equipment. Thanks to our incredible partners and our Football Distribution Days this summer, thousands of student-athletes have the gear they need to step onto the field with confidence and play the game they love. Partners/Sponsors: @commanders @ravens @goldenarmaward @riddellsports @philadelphiaeagles @dunkin @buffalobills (Special shoutout to Meade HS on their Homecoming Game tonight!)
This is why we do what we do… “LPF’s donation has This is why we do what we do… “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.” – Fundación Los Niños de María, Inc. @fundacionlosninosdemaria 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!” –Food 4 Thought Community Outreach Services, Inc. @food4thoughtcos
Happy National Coaches Day! Coaches are fundament Happy National Coaches Day! Coaches are fundamental to LPF, helping us get more kids the access to sports and mentorship they deserve. To celebrate, our staff members shared some timeless wisdom they received from their own childhood coaches: What’s one piece of advice a coach gave you that has stayed with you?
