How to Support Sozo

At Sozo Sports, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to play, grow, and belong, regardless of their financial situation. As a nonprofit organization, we do not exist to generate profit. Every dollar we receive is reinvested directly back into our fields, facilities, and programs.


From maintaining safe, high-quality playing surfaces to expanding access through scholarships and new opportunities, it all depends on community support.

 

Donations help us:

  • Provide scholarships for athletes who refuse to let financial barriers hold them back
  • Maintain and improve our fields and facilities year-round
  • Expand programs that serve thousands of youth in the Yakima Valley
  • Continue building a place where families gather, kids grow, and community is strengthened


We’ve worked hard to keep participation as affordable as possible, but the reality is, operating and maintaining a complex like Sozo requires ongoing investment. That’s where people like you make the difference.


When you give to Sozo, you’re not just making a donation - you’re putting kids on fields, creating opportunities, and helping shape the next generation.
