Company OverviewThe U.S. Soccer Foundation was established in 1995 to manage the surplus funds generated by the 1994 FIFA World Cup held in the United States. Under the guidance of its Board of Directors, the Foundation has taken a leading role in supporting the continuous development of the sport at all levels. Over $45 million in grants, financial support and loans have been made to help develop coaches, players and referees, especially those in economically disadvantaged urban areas.The Foundation is guided by some of America's most experienced soccer leaders, who serve on a 27-person Board of Directors. Though many come from various leagues and organizations within the soccer community, each puts aside his or her affiliation when deliberating Foundation business. A doctrine of neutrality and Fair Play reigns at all meetings. The Chairman is Brad Hays, an attorney based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the President is John Koskinen, who works from the Washington, D.C. headquarters. The U.S. Soccer Foundation has one simple mission statement that guides our wide range of initiatives: "To enhance, assist and grow the sport of soccer in the United States." |
