The AMFANS Foundation exists to break down financial and other systemic barriers so children, families and athletes can experience the joy of sports — as players, as fans, and as part of a connected community.

Many of us are blessed with the ability to play the sports we love, buy our families quality equipment and fan fear, and attend live sporting events with friends and family. But many of us need some help getting in the game and bearing the ever-rising cost of playing and watching sports.

We created The American Sports Fans (“AMFANS”) Foundation in 2024 for sports fans like you who want to help others. We make sports more affordable for American families, in three ways:

Supporting amazing sports-related charities making sports more accessible and enjoyable for families and young athletes, and promoting mental health in sports.
Serving as a powerful advocate to make sports more affordable for everyone, especially live events for lower-income families.
Bringing our donors valuable discounts on college and pro fan gear, sporting goods and sportswear.

Sports unite us, build communities, and promote both physical and mental health in ways nothing else can. American sports consumers are 200 million strong and have the economic and cultural power to create meaningful change. Please join us in making sports more accessible.

Many thanks,

Charles R. Stephenson
