  • Alex’s Homebreak

    Alex’s Homebreak offers youth girls’ teams in San Diego the opportunity to attend a San Diego Wave FC game by giving away 15 tickets every home match, plus 2 chaperones’ tickets. The girls of Alex’s Homebreak have been an integral part in defining the purpose of the Alex Morgan Foundation.

    Do you have a girls’ team in or near San Diego County you’d like to nominate for Alex’s Homebreak? If selected, your team will receive an exclusive experience with special seating in the designated Homebreak section at a Wave FC game.

  • Girl Effect

    The playing field is not always equal, especially for girls.

    Together, Girl Effect and the Alex Morgan Foundation are launching a special videocampaign series, “In the Field,” which interviews girls from 5 countries about their role models, aspirations, and motivations. Our goal is to amplify the voices of young women and celebrate all that they are doing to create more opportunities for girls as changemakers in their communities.

Getting started in the community

We launched in March 2023 with eyes set on a more equitable and empowered future. Thanks to generous support from our Starting XI partners, we were able to immediately put our mission into action. Take a look at what we were able to achieve in our first six months.

COACHING MOMS INITIATIVE

Ensuring Mom Coaches can lead their teams AND their families with support and confidence.

Starting in October 2024, this new initiative from the Alex Morgan Foundation intends to support high potential college coaches who are also moms to ensure they stay in the game of coaching and have the right childcare support in their personal lives.

With the rising costs of childcare and national “care crisis,” this new initiative will support coaching moms at the individual, systemic and storytelling levels. It will:

  1. Provide resources and childcare funding assistance to individual mom coaches 

  2. Share best practices to improve support structures specific for coaching moms.

  3. Tell real stories about childcare issues and the powerful lives of coaching moms.

A trusted organization serving kids and families since 1954, Rady Children’s Hospital is ranked among the top 10 children’s hospitals in the country. Together, we’re committed to raising the next generation of confident kids by supporting families during difficult times, providing mental health resources for teens, and getting more kids involved in sports.
