IF YOU WANT TO SHAPE THE FUTURE, INSPIRE A LIFE.

Love 15 welcomes anyone who wants to be part of our mission. Volunteering with us is a meaningful experience that not only changes the lives of the children we serve but often leaves a lasting impression on the volunteers themselves. We invite people of all backgrounds - high school students, college students, tennis enthusiasts, parents, and experienced coaches - to join us.

Below are several ways to get involved.

BECOME AN AMBASSADOR

We are actively recruiting young leaders who share our commitment to enriching the lives of children through tennis. Our work began in the Washington, DC metro area, but we are actively expanding our reach through new programs and service trips - including efforts beyond the DC region. You do not need to live in the DC area to become an Ambassador; we welcome young leaders from anywhere who are passionate about our mission and want to help spread the word in their own communities.

Ambassadors can contribute in several ways:

Collect new and gently used tennis equipment for delivery to the Love 15 Foundation

Volunteer to teach the fundamentals of tennis to the children we support

Help organize and run the fundraising efforts that sustain Love 15’s programs

Spread awareness of Love 15’s mission within their own school and community

AMBASSADOR LEAD

For students who want to take on a greater leadership role, we offer the opportunity to serve as an Ambassador Lead at your high school or college.

Ambassador Leads represent Love 15 on their campus, recruit fellow students to volunteer, and help organize tennis equipment drives, fundraisers, and awareness events within their school community. It is a chance to build a chapter of Love 15 where you are, and to develop the leadership and organizational experience that comes with leading a team toward a shared goal.

Becoming an Ambassador or an Ambassador Lead is more than a volunteer role. It is an opportunity to develop leadership experience, strengthen public-speaking and organizational skills, and become part of a growing community of student leaders making a measurable difference in the lives of children.

BECOME A LOVE 15 PARTNER

If you are a business owner or professional whose values align with our mission, consider becoming a Partner of the Love 15 Tennis Foundation. Partnerships can take many forms, and we are grateful for support at every level - whether that means donating equipment outright, offering it at a discounted rate, providing coaching at a reduced fee or pro bono, supplying t-shirts and water bottles for our team and Ambassadors, or sponsoring a clinic, event, or service trip.

Whatever shape your support takes, it directly advances our work and help Love 15 Tennis Foundation reach more children.?

TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

We believe partnership should go both ways. Businesses and individuals who support Love 15 will be featured in the Partners section of our website, with their name, logo, and a direct link to their company. We also recognize our Partners at events and program activities throughout the year, giving your business meaningful visibility within the communities we serve and among the families who benefit from our work.
