Philadelphia, PA

LPF opened its inaugural warehouse in Washington DC in 2013 and successfully replicated our model in 2018 when we expanded into Baltimore. Four years later, we opened the doors to our third warehouse in Philadelphia to serve under-resourced communities in and around the City of Philadelphia. As a city with a deep passion for not only its local professional sports teams, but also, its community youth sports organizations, we saw an opportunity to make sure as many kids as possible growing up around the city would be able to get on the playing field. Our program has the opportunity to help local students experience a childhood full of positive youth sports memories and take advantage of the physical and mental benefits youth sports have to offer.
