Student Athletes Supporting Student Athletes
Mutual Aid at Work
Started by a high school student-athlete who is passionate about sports, Load the Locker is a grassroots organization that helps underprivileged students have access to the equipment and gear they need to ensure that they can play sports. The organization collects new and gently used gear, equipment, and uniforms to ensure that students get to stay in the game!
Support Any Sport
Whether you’re an individual cleaning out your garage or a company that has access to equipment, gear or uniforms, Load the Locker will gladly take your donations, refurbish them if necessary, and find a new home for them. Regardless of the sport, we are committed to make sure that student-athletes have the support they need year after year.
Stay in the Game
Research shows that a child's involvement in sports helps them improve their social interaction, increase their confidence, and improve their listening skills and health. Participation in sports is also linked to higher grades, lower dropout rates, an increase in leadership skills, reduced truancy, and lower crime rates.
