TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE AN IMPACT

World Sport Chicago (WSC) is a local 501c(3) non-profit organization that invests in Chicago and in the future of Chicago’s youth. We meet people where they are – in the schools, in the community, in the parks and use the transformative spirit of sport to teach, challenge and unite:

• PROVIDING POSITIVE ROLE MODELS AND MENTORS to provide guidance and constructive influences;
• TEACHING VALUABLE LIFE SKILLS like goal setting, accountability, teamwork and respect that help youth cope with and overcome difficult circumstances;
• and presenting opportunities that are CHALLENGING YOUTH TO NOT ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE LIMITED BY THEIR CURRENT SITUATION.

There is a power in going through struggle and change together. There is a strength that comes from knowing people believe in you. In stepping up to the bike we are showing Chicago’s youth that they are not alone. We are working together to invest in their future and in their dreams.
