RAVE Foundation

Vision

RAVE Foundation's vision is a region abundant with opportunities for free play where we all work together using soccer to include, educate, and inspire our kids and our communities to be healthy and strong. Our goal: to build 26 small fields for free play throughout Washington by the year 2026, when FIFA World Cup comes to our state. Those fields will anchor RAVE programs that use soccer to help children learn, be healthy and feel joy!

How RAVE Works

RAVE works with communities to bring to life a gathering place for play that is their own and reflects their diverse cultures, interests, and values.
RAVE embodies Sounders FC's deep roots in the Puget Sound region. RAVE invests in strengthening this sense of place in the Pacific Northwest.
RAVE recognizes and respects the diversity of communities we serve by tailoring fields and programs in a way that meets each community's specific needs.
RAVE uses soccer - the 'world's game' - as a way to welcome people of all cultures, nationalities, and circumstances and to invite them to build stronger communities with us.
RAVE creates access by providing free fields for free play, and free programs that inspire and foster the whole healthy child.

RAVE Foundation and our community partners have already opened 19 fields - help us reach 26 by 2026 by giving big today!
