Description

Leveling the Playing Field Leveling the Playing Field (LPF) is a national nonprofit dedicated to expanding access and equity by redistributing athletic equipment to under-resourced communities.

LPF’s mission is simple and powerful: to ensure that cost and lack of resources are never the reason a young person is sidelined from sports and physical activity.

Founded in 2013, LPF operates at the intersection of sports, youth development, health and wellness, and education to address persistent inequities embedded in youth sports.

Through large-scale equipment redistribution, community partnerships, volunteer engagement, and earned revenue strategies, LPF supports schools, community-based organizations, and recreation programs serving young people who would otherwise lack access to safe, appropriate sports gear.

With a team of approximately 20 staff, a $3 million operating budget, and an additional $5 million in in-kind goods, LPF has built a strong national platform with deep local partnerships.

LPF is at an exciting inflection point, moving from founder-led growth to a more institutionalized national organization.

The Executive Director will lead this next chapter, refining strategy, strengthening systems, and elevating LPF’s platform for sports-based youth development.
