About Los Angeles Chargers

Founded by the Spanos family in 1995 to supplement the efforts of the team’s Community Relations Department, the Chargers Community Foundation has led the way in honoring volunteers, assisting youth sports, and helping critical causes important to the region.

Since its inception, the Foundation has provided more than $11 million in direct community assistance. The Chargers Community Foundation has been providing funds to educational institutions for more than two decades. This passion for schools also led to the creation of the Chargers signature program, Chargers Champions, in 2000. Specifically, the Foundation has awarded more than $5 million in grants to schools for athletic equipment and physical fitness programming; provided hundreds of thousands in funding to high school athletic programs through the annual Coach of the Week Program; and provided millions of dollars in assistance when disaster has struck, including more than $750,000 to assist victims of Hurricane Harvey and the Southern California wildfires. The Chargers Community Foundation aims to create a measurable impact on our community.
