America SCORES Cleveland (SCORES) is a nonprofit organization providing more than 2,000 Cleveland youth with 32 weeks of afterschool and summer activities. Our goal is to inspire youth to lead healthy lives, be engaged students, and have the confidence and character to make a difference in the world. Through daily, team-based soccer and writing workshops and annual community service projects, SCORES measurably improves fitness, literacy, and communications skills, and empowers kids to create change in their communities. Our innovative tri-curricular approach effectively demonstrates to young people how physical activity, creativity, and teamwork promote a sound body, mind, and character.
