Inter Miami CF Holds its Fifth Annual Equipment Drive Presented by Florida Blue

0043-IMCF - Equipment Drive2

Fans, supporters, and community members are encouraged to drop off new and used fútbol equipment through March 31.

It’s that time of year again! Inter Miami CF is calling on all supporters to harness their passion for fútbol and give back to the community for the Fifth Annual Equipment Drive presented by Florida Blue. The Equipment Drive aims to break down barriers faced by fútbol players from various economic backgrounds, providing them an equal opportunity to follow their athletic passions.

This year, Inter Miami and Florida Blue are thrilled to select Fútbol Con Corazón (FCC) as the beneficiary of this initiative, an organization spanning eight countries with a mission to create a socio-emotionally empowered youth through soccer. FCC understands the difficulties many young people face in discouraging environments and shares Inter Miami’s approach for initiating change - harnessing the power of fútbol to do good.

Inter Miami and Community Partner Florida Blue are of the same belief- A unified community has the power to change lives. Together, they are ready to lead the mission that will give players from all backgrounds the confidence to pursue their fútbol dreams.

The initiative kicked off earlier this week on March 17 and will last through the week of March 31. Fans, supporters and community members are encouraged to donate gently used or new fútbol equipment at any of the following four drop off locations in South Florida through the duration of the initiative:
