Stand Together adds Social Equity to pillars of focus

The Stand Together mission is to harness the power of sport to improve the lives of children and families through targeted programs, deep partnerships, and philanthropic giving.

What are the pillars of focus?

We have recently restructured our key areas of focus. While our core pillars have always been Education, Health/Wellness and Environmental Awareness, all through a diversity lens, we have elevated social justice from within Education to be a separate, stand-alone pillar called Social Equity. Social Equity is interconnected with all other aspects of Stand Together. Under Social Equity, we are proud to continue to champion BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) causes and gender equality initiatives.
