Increasing access and opportunities in youth sport participation, regardless of socioeconomic or geographic boundaries, is a foundational pillar of Valeo FC and The Valeo Foundation. Elite-level athletics can be an expensive proposition, and soccer is no exception. Expensive club fees, equipment, travel, and field access, exclude many kids from participating, especially those in urban or under-served communities in our local neighborhoods and across international borders.
Soccer provides more than fun – it teaches life skills, self-esteem, physical and mental well-being, and for many, provides a pathway to college or professional opportunities. Additionally, it keeps our at-risk youth engaged in an environment that can change the trajectory of their life.
The Valeo Foundation provides access by removing financial and geographic boundaries. The social impact of Valeo programs are felt by individuals and entire communities from our local neighborhoods, our inner-cities, and in countries well beyond our borders.

Sponsor a Boston Inner-City Skills Clinic or Summer Camp
Attending a skills clinic or a week of summer camp can be that one thing a young player needs to find their passion, boost their self-esteem, and give them that opportunity they would not have without you. If you would like to make a difference for a group of players, this is a phenomenal way to do it. So many youth players in our own backyards lack the access to elite training, or the opportunity to compete at a high level because they do not have the money to do so. By providing an entire clinic or camp event, you are bringing kids into a safe and healthy environment where they can learn, grow, and excel. We are told over and over, "this clinic was the turning point, 'the one thing' that gave them the soccer and academic opportunities they have today!"
