?#?GivingTuesday is Dec. 2 and we need your help!
In the days following Thanksgiving, Americans will spend millions of dollars in the shopping frenzies around Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
#GivingTuesday is a day to remind us all that giving means much more than the exchange of material goods—it means volunteering at a local shelter, helping out a friend in need and, of course, donating to worthy causes…such as helping a child play AYSO soccer.
Please consider donating to AYSO this #GivingTuesday. Our campaign helps ensure that every child has the opportunity to play AYSO soccer. A donation now could help a child in need play soccer next season.
