Community Partners:
We remain a proud Community Partner of Mt. Carmel Veteran's Service Center in Colorado Springs. Mt. Carmel is one of the finest Service Centers in the country providing programs such as Transition and Employment, Health and Wellness, PTSD, Job Placement and much, much more for Military Veteran's and their families. If a family or a Veteran needs sports equipment, toys, games, or bicycles we will do our best to provide; if we don't have it we will find it. All of the donations received throughout the year go out to over 500 Veteran and 1st Responder families on Patriot's Day at Mt. Carmel (one of our favorite times of the year) - a lot of work, but "damn well worth it". At Christmas 4kidzsports sponsored 4 families with Christmas presents through the Mt. Carmel Angel Angel Tree program.
Thanks to PPYMCA. we fill more than 10 donation boxes every two weeks during July and August. A special thanks goes out to Boyd Williams, President and CEO of the PPYMCA, and his great staff, for 8 weeks of incredible donations to help support our mission. Without their help we couldn't accomplish our goal.
Each year we help support the Marine Corps Toys4Tots program, which supports underprivileged kids throughout the country.

Some of Our Accomplishments:
We continue to provide scholarships for kids to play hockey in Al Pedersen's "Little Rookies" Hockey Program at the Monument Ice Rink. "Big Al" allows us to send over any kids who wish to learn this great game at NO charge on Saturday mornings. They put on the equipment, get out on the rink and feel what it's like to be a hockey player. Thank You Al!
Finally, we love supporting the great efforts of Russ Laney and Home Field Advantage. Each year they sponsor the Celebration of Service (CS) Awards Breakfast, which is always a big hit. Thank You Russ for your undying support! These men and women are all graduates of USAFA - Veterans who continue to support our community and serve our country.
