About this organization
Mission
PowerPlay advances the lives of girls through sports, helping them grow physically, emotionally and academically stronger. We create opportunities for girls of color ages 8 through 18 by partnering with schools and CBOs in NYC to conduct after-school and summer programs that emphasize social-emotional wellness and physical fitness and education. Through sports, we build girls' confidence and resilience and create safe spaces where girls learn from one another and from strong female role models who look like them.
