Support the Mission
Sports Reach athletes are accepted in prisons and countries where many other Christian organizations are not invited. Without the generosity of our supporters, these lives could not be changed.
When you give to Sports Reach, you help athletes and coaches grow in their faith and use their sport to take the Gospel around the world. How can you help support us?

fostering faith through sports
Our team at Sports Reach understands it can be difficult to use your love for sports for a greater purpose. Whether you are an athlete or fan, we believe you should be able to use your passion for sports to share The Gospel and grow in your personal faith. The problem is you probably don’t know where to start, which leaves you feeling insecure about it. We understand your struggle, because we are coaches and athletes too! Our experience has helped us be in ministry for 32 years while reaching 22 different countries. At Sports Reach, we think you should be able to reach the world, share The Gospel, and glorify Christ all through sports.
