Support Programs and Events for All

At Asphalt Green, we believe that everyone—regardless of age, ability, or economic circumstance—should have the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of sports, fitness, and play.

Through free and low-cost community programs, we provide sports, fitness, and play opportunities that enrich lives, build healthy habits, and bring people together.

Your Gift Fuels Community Access

When you support Asphalt Green, you make it possible for us to:

  • Offer Free and Low-Cost Sports Opportunities: Through programs like Community Sports Leagues (CSL) in soccer, basketball, and flag football, we give kids in NYC the chance to learn teamwork, build confidence, and stay active in a supportive environment.
  • Teach Essential Life Skills: Initiatives like Waterproofing, our Recess Enhancement Program (REP), and our After-School program equip children with critical water safety skills and encourage active, inclusive play during recess and after-school hours.
  • Host Unforgettable Events: Free, annual community events such as Big Swim, Big Kick, Asphalt Screams, and our summer Sprinkler Days and Movie Nights bring neighbors together to celebrate fitness, fun, and togetherness.
