Rave Foundation

The RAVE Foundation, the official charitable arm of the Seattle Sounders, is a 501c-3 public charity which was founded in 2013 to serve the greater Puget Sound community. Its mission: To build small fields for free play and invest in programs that use soccer as a vehicle to inspire youth and strengthen communities. The RAVE Foundation has three core strategies: First, to use soccer as a vehicle to empower and inspire; Second, to remove barriers to participation on and off the field; and, Third, to support, catalyze and strengthen communities. By building small fields, the RAVE Foundation provides a place for kids to play freely, be physically active and safe, and to be inclusive stakeholders in their communities.
