 "about": "In Desert Hot Springs and across the Coachella Valley, access to opportunity isn\u2019t evenly distributed .\n\nThe True League Foundation bridges that gap by creating safe spaces, providing transportation, strengthening mentorship, and delivering life-changing exposure experiences for youth and families whose potential extends beyond their zip code.\n\nOn CV Giving Day, every donor helps unlock bonus funding and expand opportunity across our community.\n\nWHO WE ARE\n\nThe True League Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit rooted in lived experience and deep community connection.\n\nWe work alongside youth, families, adults, and seniors who face real and ongoing barriers to access \u2014 including transportation, cost, and limited exposure to opportunity.\n\nFor many families, basic necessities come first. Without support, enrichment, travel, and exposure experiences remain out of reach.\n\nWhat Access Looks Like\n\n\u2022 Transportation to college campuses and professional environments\n\n\u2022 \u00a0Safe gym space for structured youth programming\n\n\u2022 Mentorship and leadership development\n\n\u2022 \u00a0Exposure to arts, culture, science, and career pathways\n\n\u2022 Community outreach and basic support resources\n\nAccess creates opportunity. Opportunity cha nges lives .\n\nWhy Support Is Needed\n\nAccess has real costs.\n\nA single charter bus can cost up to $2,800.\n\nGym rental can exceed $3,000 for a season.\n\nTransportation, materials, staffing, and outreach require consistent funding.\n\nOn CV Giving Day, every donor strengthens our ability to sustain and expand this work.\n\nProven Impact\n\nFor more than 16 years, our leadership has worked directly with youth and families in Desert Hot Springs and the surrounding communities \u2014 providing structured programming, mentorship, and safe recreational spaces.\n\nThrough consistent community engagement, collaboration with local schools, programs and hands-on outreach, we have served hundreds of participants across multiple generations.\n\nOur work is rooted in lived experience, long-standing relationships, and a deep understanding of the barriers families face \u2014 from transportation limitations to lack of exposure opportunities.\n\nThe True League Foundation is not starting from scratch. We are building on years of trusted presence and expanding access with intention.\n\nWhat We Do\n\nThe True League Foundation creates access by:\n\n\u2022 Operating community-based sports leagues and structured programming\n\n\u2022 Providing mentorship and leadership development\n\n\u2022 \u00a0Delivering wellness-focused initiatives\n\n\u2022 \u00a0Supporting educational and literacy growth\n\n\u2022 \u00a0Expanding exposure to colleges, professional environments, and cultural experiences\n\nTo make this possible, we secure transportation, rent gym facilities, and create safe, structured spaces where youth and families can participate, connect, and grow.\n\nAccess also means meeting immediate needs. Through outreach efforts, we provide hygiene kits, essential supplies, and basic support resources that remove unseen barriers and allow families to focus on growth and opportunity.\n\nOur Mission\n\nWe bridge gaps to access.\n\nAccess creates opportunity.\n\nOpportunity creates experiences that change lives.\n\nThrough sports, mentorship, wellness, education, literacy, and outreach, we remove barriers that prevent individuals and families from fully participating in opportunities that build confidence, perspective, and long-term possibility..\n\nOur Vision\n\nWe envision a future where a child\u2019s zip code does not determine their exposure to opportunity \u2014 where families have access to experiences that expand perspective, and communities are strengthened through connection, dignity, and support.\n\nWe bridge gaps to access.\n\nWe create opportunity.\n\nWe deliver experiences that change lives.\n\nTogether, we are building pathways forward \u2014 expanding what is possible and protecting the future of our community.",
