Program Development

The Ponce Lions Club

2024’s biggest triumph was the launch of the Ponce Lions Club, a youth startup club that introduced lacrosse to local children through multiple clinics in Charles H Terry Sport Park. The plan is to create after-school and summer programs for the community. To follow a link to the website, which details their efforts, visit www.poncelions.com.

The Ponce Lions represent hope for the future, where lacrosse is shared across Puerto Rico, empowering kids in every corner of the island to find their voice, confidence, and place in the world. 

It is worth noting that our Ponce project has expanded to renovate an abandoned school that is currently without power and water. Working with a local sports cooperative, COODEP, the plan is to support the repurposing of the school as a community sports academy. This is a work-in-progress project; we welcome your collaboration and donations.
