Community Service

As a true non-profit, PISA enjoys being involved and part of our community, sharing in the development of our youth and families. If your school is in need of small soccer goals or balls, or if we can help your family, let PISA know and we will try our best to help. If you are a business or individual who would like to donate to PISA to allow us to continue serving our community, please consider donating so we can continue our mission. Below are some ways PISA has been involved. Help donate for the purchase of goals, balls or uniforms; or help sponsor a child to play.

Make a tax-deductible Donation

Donations are used to purchase goals, balls, paint, and uniforms. Your gift can be anonymous or we will post your advertisement in return. See Sponsorships.
