HERE IS A QUICK OVERVIEW OF WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:
Who We Are
Starfinder Foundation is a nonprofit organization that uses soccer to inspire social change and transform the lives of youth in underserved communities, one kid at a time. Our vision is a Philadelphia region where the playing field is level, and all kids are thriving.
We are guided by the following principles:
- All kids deserve to learn, grow, and thrive.
- A strong community is our greatest asset.
- Young people have a great deal to contribute.
- Soccer is a powerful vehicle for youth development.
- Play makes life better.
Why We Do It
At Starfinder Foundation (Starfinder), we are actively refuting the idea that Philadelphia’s underserved youth need to stay underserved. We refute the idea that only the kids with the most resources can be successful or that graduation and college is attainable to some, but not to all.
Therefore, we do not just help kids on the soccer field; we help them develop off the field too. We provide educational resources, emotional support, and leadership training. We cultivate a supportive, tight-knit community that pushes young people forward.
Starfinder is an award winning, internationally recognized nonprofit organization that promotes positive youth development for pre-school, elementary, middle, and high school youth through high-quality sports-based youth development programming. We use soccer as a framework to provide the opportunity and support youth in becoming healthy contributors to their communities.
We offer young people an experience through which they can excel in athletics while practicing life and leadership skills in a safe, fun, supportive and challenging environment.
Who We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate:
- Has experience working with children…and loves it!
- Has been called the energizer bunny once or twice in their lives
- Values and practices a growth mindset
