Maddy's Play It Forward

Maddy’s Play It Forward is an initiative dedicated to making sports accessible for everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. The foundation collects gently used and new sports equipment—from hockey sticks and soccer cleats to basketballs and lacrosse sticks—and redistributes these items free of charge to children, youth, and families in need.

Founded on the belief that every child deserves the chance to play, grow, and thrive through sport, Maddy’s Play It Forward works to remove financial barriers that often prevent participation. By partnering with our community and families, the organization ensures equipment reaches those who need it most.

Beyond simply providing gear, Maddy’s Play It Forward promotes inclusion, physical activity, and confidence-building. Each donated item represents more than just equipment—it’s an opportunity for a child to join a team, develop skills, and experience the joy and connection that sports can bring.

Through the generosity of donors and the strength of community support, Maddy’s Play It Forward is helping level the playing field—one piece of equipment at a time.

If you are in need of any type of equipment, for organized or recreational sport, please reach out. If we do not have what you need, we will attempt to find it for you.

We are always accepting donations of new or  gently used equipment and sports supplies.
