After helping lead the San Diego Wave to the best regular season record and the NWSL Supporters’ Shield, forward Alex Morgan is continuing her efforts to help young athletes achieve success.

Morgan’s media company TOGETHXR, which was started with two-time Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim, two-time Olympic gold medalist swimmer Simone Manuel, and five-time Olympic gold medalist, and four-time WNBA champion Sue Bird, is raising money through GoFundMe in order to directly benefit The Alex Morgan Foundation.

Recently, Morgan’s foundation honored North Park student Nina Asnani.

“On this global day of giving people all over the world get together to support the causes they believe in by making donations to foundations and community-based organizations on the ground doing the work to make a difference,” said Manuel.

The foundation started by the US women’s national team star and Wave forward has set out with a goal to empower the next generation of female athletes while building equity in sports. Through GoFundMe their goal is to give young athletes access to soccer camps, equipment, jerseys, SD Wave tickets, and all things needed to achieve success in their sport.

“TOGETHXR is excited to rally our community with the goal of helping fund the next sports season for 1,000-plus girls, by creating equity and opportunity on and off the field,” reads the fundraiser. “Be it in sport or at school, at home, or in the community, the Alex Morgan Foundation identifies challenges facing girls and women and invests in programs that make a difference.”

Morgan led the SD Wave in scoring with seven goals in 19 matches after having won the Golden Boot in 2022 with 15 goals during the regular season. For those interested the GoFundMe page can be found here: https://gf.me/v/c/jwbr/alex-morgan-foundation.
