Got Pickleball?  Too Many Don’t.

You love pickleball. So do we. 

Pickleball builds confidence, skills, healing, and belonging – on and off the court. 

Yet lack of funding limits access in what we call “underchampioned” communities – those who have the most to gain, and least access.

We can help you turn your love for the sport into ImpactGrants, awarded to eligible nonprofits, schools, clubs, and community centers across the country.
