Nonprofit Alignments

As part of our focus for all USA Productions events, nonprofit alignments are one of our priorities for all events across the nation. Below are some of the great nonprofits we support as beneficiaries of our great events:

Building Futures Now
www.buildingfuturesnow.org

A non-profit organization dedicated to opening the doors of the Bay Area's top public and private schools to high-potential, under-served students from East Palo Alto and East Menlo Park. In 2007, Menlo Masters Swimming began seeking a way to make a difference outside the pool facility, realizing that the support swimmers provide each other and the power of their shared commitment could be extended to the surrounding community. Building Futures Now emerged as the perfect partner to take that spirit of involvement to the neighborhood.

At USA Productions events, the kids of Building Futures Now will both volunteer and participate as athletes. They'll get to experience the excitement and positive energy of sports events, as well as see what it takes to make a successful day of racing.

Insulin Dependence
www.triabetes.org

Triabetes is a USAT certified triathlon club for people of all ages with all types of diabetes. Since 2007, Triabetes club members have trained together and competed in hundreds of triathlon events from coast to coast. From 18 years of age to 60, Team Triabetes has demonstrated that you're never too old or young to "Give it a Shot."

As the world's largest triathlon club for people with diabetes, Triabetes shatters preconceived notions of what people with diabetes can do, revolutionizing the way people approach diabetes through inspiration, education of the patient and medical communities about diabetes and exercise, and exploration of the physiological and social foundations of successful diabetes management.

Triabetes is a project of Insulindependence, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to creating fitness and adventure opportunities in the diabetes community.

Challenge Athletes Foundation
www.challengedathletes.org/

It is the mission of the Challenged Athletes Foundation to provide opportunities and support to people with physical disabilities so they can pursue active lifestyles through physical fitness and competitive athletics. The Challenged Athletes Foundation believes that involvement in sports at any level increases self-esteem, encourages independence and enhances quality of life.
