Because Lacrosse Matters...

In lacrosse, the team with the most goals wins. But as players, coaches and officials, families and fans, we know we derive more from lacrosse than just results on the field. Lacrosse provides models for teamwork, leadership, fitness, excellence, traditions and connections that we carry through in everyday life.

The US Lacrosse Foundation provides ways to further your connections with the sport while furthering the responsible growth and legacy of lacrosse.

As an independent non-profit organization, the US Lacrosse Foundation operates in support of US Lacrosse, the national governing body of men's and women's lacrosse. According to the US Lacrosse Foundation bylaws, "the principal aims and objectives of the Foundation are to encourage, foster and promote the sport of lacrosse, as played by both men and women, in the United States, and in particular, to benefit and support the programs and activities of US Lacrosse."

While membership income primarily supports member communications and services, tax-deductible contributions to the US Lacrosse Foundation provide further resources crucial to the organization's mission to serve the sport through promotion, development, education, training and resources.

There are many ways to support US Lacrosse, through leadership giving, annual gifts, national team support, legacy planned giving, gifts of stock, memorial and honorary gifts, or corporate and matching gifts, all of which provide meaningful ways to signify your personal commitment to lacrosse.

Everyday, loyal and generous donors help support our mission of ensuring a unified and responsive organization that develops and promotes the sport by providing services to its members and programs to inspire participation, while preserving the integrity of the game.

We invite you to show your support of the sport today.
