The Starfinder Foundation seeks to enhance the personal growth of underserved youth through soccer and learning experiences that engage, inspire, and motivate.  Founded in 2002, Starfinder engages 800-1,000 youth annually in a wide range of activities that integrate opportunities for leadership, teamwork, decision-making, creativity and self-expression.  Starfinder is intent on providing supervised, structured, and safe environments in which young people ages 6 to 18 can thrive while developing their soccer talents and life skills. Starfinder partners with a diverse group of local and national partners, including foundations, corporate sponsors, local authorities, soccer clubs, youth service organizations, and academic institutions to deliver its programs in the greater Philadelphia region.
