MISSION
SG United Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to empower girls and women to be strong, confident, and resilient through sports, mentorship, and mental health programming.
Â
We believe physical activity, mental skills, strong mentorship, and community give girls what they need to succeed. Each component of our curriculum and programs is intentionally designed based on this principle and guided by our motto: strong bodies, kind hearts, and unstoppable minds. Through physical activity & sports, mental health and well-being activities, and social connection, we teach our Strong Girls that they can be, and do, anything.Â
