Want to support a Youngstown City High School Sports Team by providing a team meal before the games?

  • Team Unity

    Shared meals foster a sense of community and camaraderie among the team members. Team meals allow students to bond, strengthening relationships and building trust, which is essential for team dynamics and success.

  • Affordable for All

    Not every student can afford to bring their own meal, and some may even struggle with food insecurity. Donations help level the playing field by ensuring that every athlete has access to a nourishing meal, regardless of their financial situation.

  • Improved Performance

    Proper nutrition plays a key role in enhancing athletic performance. By providing nutritious meals before games, you help students maintain the energy, focus, and endurance needed to perform at their best on the field.

  • Healthy Growth and Development

    Student-athletes, especially at younger ages, are still growing and need proper nourishment to support both their physical and mental development. Donating ensures that they have access to healthy, balanced meals that promote their overall well-being.

  • Increased Attendance and Commitment

    When students know that they will be provided with a meal before the game, it can encourage higher attendance at practices and games. This also shows the team's commitment to supporting them, increasing morale and dedication.

  • Support for Student-Athletes’ Schedules

    Many student-athletes juggle demanding academic schedules with sports. Team meals help streamline their day, providing a break from the usual routine and ensuring they’re nourished without the added stress of preparing meals themselves.

  • Setting a Positive Example

    Supporting students in this way fosters a culture of giving back and community involvement. Donors set a positive example for others to follow, demonstrating the importance of teamwork and supporting those who are working hard to achieve their goals.

  • Promotes Team Well-being

    Consistent nutrition leads to better mental health, focus, and overall well-being. Providing meals can help students feel cared for and valued, which boosts self-esteem and confidence, both on and off the field.

  • Encourages Community Involvement

    Donations for team meals create opportunities for the community to rally behind local athletes. It strengthens local ties and gives everyone a chance to contribute to the success and well-being of young people in their area.

  • Long-term Impact

    Supporting student-athletes with meals before games can have a long-term impact, not just on their performance, but on their personal development. Helping them succeed in their sports can lead to greater opportunities and scholarships, positively affecting their future.
