NEW YORK, Feb. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, DICK'S Sporting Goods and The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation hosted a Here for Her Summit in New York City, a focused and collective effort to champion women and girls in sports and fitness.
At the summit, a group of women spanning the sports industry including professional soccer player Sydney Leroux, legendary softball pitcher Jennie Finch, track and field Olympic Gold Medalist and CEO of Laureus USA Benita Fitzgerald Mosley, and Associate Vice President of Programs for the U.S. Soccer Foundation Sarah Pickens, were joined by Katie Holmes, Cathy Engelbert, Christine Brennan and Elaine Welteroth to share how sports and fitness have impacted their lives. The group also reacted to the retailer's multifaceted 2020 Women's Initiative.
"At DICK'S we believe at our core that sports matter. There are so many incredible benefits to playing sports, from building character, to learning how to win and lose, to increasing self-confidence," said Lauren Hobart, President of DICK'S and The DICK'S Foundation. "It was very special to have so many empowering women at our 'Here for Her' Summit this morning. Today is a proud moment for our Company and the Foundation as we announced expanded offerings in-store and increase our support for young girls to play sports."
To kickstart the Company's 2020 Women's Initiative, the following important announcements were made at today's summit.
Since 2014, DICK'S and The DICK'S Foundation have pledged more than $100 million to support youth sports teams and leagues in need. The Sports Matter initiative strives to increase awareness for the growing issue of underfunded youth athletics nationwide and provide much-needed support through equipment, uniform and monetary donations.
