PITTSBURGH, Nov. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- DICK'S Sporting Goods and The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation are sharing the gift of sport this holiday season on their fourth Sports Matter #GiftOfSportTour. The Giving Truck will travel to eight cities across six states in the western U.S. – Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City and Denver – and will provide 10,000 gifts of sports equipment to children from under-resourced communities.

Professional athletes Kyle Juszczyk, Anfernee Simons, Te'a Cooper and A'ja Wilson will help The DICK'S Foundation provide the gift of sport and surprise kids at select stops along the Giving Truck route.

"At this time last year, we were embarking on our first-ever Sports Matter Giving Truck Tour," said Aimee Watters, Executive Director of The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation. "Since last December, the Giving Truck has provided 35,000 gifts in 23 cities across the U.S. We're thrilled to be hitting the road again to provide kids with the equipment they need to keep playing the sports they love."

For this upcoming tour, The DICK'S Foundation has pre-selected youth athletes from sports organizations to distribute the Giving Truck gifts in the eight cities it's visiting. Foundation Partner Good Sports has prepacked bags for each individual child at these organizations, ensuring each young athlete has their own equipment to safely enjoy their favorite sports. Included in each female athlete's bag will be a DSG Brand sports bra as part of The DICK'S Foundation's previously announced commitment to donate 100,000 sports bras to youth athletes in under-resourced communities. California-based graffiti artists and muralists, The Illuminaries (@illuminaries), designed the colorful and eye-catching artwork displayed on the Truck.

Throughout the holiday season, all DICK'S Sporting Goods, Field & Stream and Golf Galaxy locations are also collecting donations and continue to support youth sports teams, leagues, organizations and schools in need.

Community Grants: Through the end of January, The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation will donate up to $6 million through the Sports Matter Community Grant program, where Community Marketing Managers and store associates across the country will have the opportunity to provide grants to local under-resourced schools and youth sports organizations.
DonorsChoose: Starting November 16, The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation will triple-match donations to Sports Matter projects on DonorsChoose up to $200,000. This means, for example, that every $20 donation to qualifying projects will become $60 for those teams in need. Since 2015, The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation has partnered with DonorsChoose to help student athletes at more than 5,300 schools across all 50 states stay involved in sports with more than $12.5 million in donations.

Since 2014, DICK'S and The DICK'S Foundation have committed over $145 million to support young athletes through its Sports Matter initiative. Sports Matter raises awareness for the youth sports funding crisis as the fight to save youth sports continues across the U.S.
