About LPF Greater Washington

Leveling the Playing Field redistributes free sports equipment to kids from under-resourced communities across the country, ensuring they can access the mental and physical benefits of youth sports.

LPF was founded in 2013 out of Silver Spring, MD to serve students living in and around Washington, DC. Our founder grew up in suburban Washington, DC and knew first-hand how much equipment went to waste throughout his community. At the same time, he would spend countless hours volunteering in some of the DC area’s most under-resourced neighborhoods where he saw kids unable to afford the equipment needed to participate in athletics. 

As a result, he founded LPF to funnel used equipment to the students who really needed it.  Since its founding, thousands of families in the DC area have contributed equipment to our cause and spent numerous hours volunteering in our warehouse. 

Now, LPF Greater Washington distributes over $1M of gear to 325+ schools and programs annually. To continue supporting our local schools, rec leagues, and other youth programs, we need your support.
