The LA84 Foundation, established from the 1984 Olympics profits, has invested over $250 million in Southern California youth sports. Recently, they hosted their eighth Play Equity Summit, focusing on eliminating barriers to kids sports participation. CEO Renata Simril emphasizes the need for free play over fees, as the pay-to-play sports industry has become a $20 billion business, excluding many children. With upcoming major sporting events in Los Angeles, Simril aims to create lasting programs through strategic partnerships and sponsorships, fostering life skills and future opportunities for kids through sports.
