The Equity in Education Fund helps young students stay motivated and on track by expanding their access to educational resources and opportunities. For students facing added barriers from income, circumstance, or community, that access can be the difference in reaching key milestones. We help close that gap.
We level the playing field by giving more kids access to the games that change lives. Soccer opened doors for our Ambassadors, and without it they wouldn't be who or where they are today. So we invest in youth sports through equipment, in-person and virtual clinics, and more, to pass that opportunity on.
Together we are fueling limitless futures by fostering healthy habits. When a child’s physical and mental needs are met, they are able to succeed in and out of the classroom. Our Ambassadors know firsthand how critical mental and physical wellbeing is, which is why our programming promotes good nutrition, daily movement, improved self-esteem, problem solving skills and stress reduction.
Just as we care for our bodies and physical health, focusing on mental wellness is key to leading a healthy, balanced life. VOYCENOW is proud to expand our impact by supporting mental health programming and resources across the US. Together, we can ensure everyone has the tools and support system they need to thrive.
Mentorship is a powerful relationship tool that can introduce youth to new opportunities and help them realize their full potential. VOYCENOW is proud to connect our network of athletes with youth from diverse communities to provide support, advice and encouragement for all areas of life, whether it be academic, athletic, or personal.
Any contribution, large or small, plays a powerful role in empowering youth by providing critical resources needed for success in and out of the classroom. Donations made to the Equity in Education Fund expand educational resources for at-risk youth, provides extended hours for after-school programs, introduces sports and healthy lifestyle choices and continues our fight for Equality for All.
Your VOYCE is needed NOW. Join our global community of athletes and fans working to create equal opportunity for every kid, whatever their background, circumstances, or zip code. Every conversation, every story shared, and every voice raised helps build a future with more doors open for the next generation.


VOYCENOW was founded as a direct response to the Black community’s fight for equality. After the tragic murder of George Floyd, Zack Steffen, Goalkeeper for Colorado Rapids and the United States national team, felt empowered to take action and speak out against the racial inequalities plaguing our nation. This pushed Zack to join forces with his former University of Maryland and Columbus Crew teammate Alex Crognale to create VOYCENOW Foundation, a nonprofit that unites athletes from across the world to use their platforms to advocate Equality for All.
Propelled by their desire to use their social media platforms to ignite positive change, the founders are committed to rallying their fans and supporters to become allies for at-risk students and athletes in the United States and beyond. Since its origins, VOYCENOW is now backed by the collaborative efforts of 150+ Athlete Ambassadors spanning 20 leagues and 13 countries. Together they make up VOYCENOW, a community of change-makers fighting for equality.
Today, that mission lives through the next generation. The VOYCENOW community is dedicated to empowering tomorrow's changemakers through four core programs: Academic Success, Sports, Healthy Habits, and Mental Wellness, opening doors of opportunity for kids who need them most.
