COLORADO SPRINGS, Co—The United States Olympic & Paralympic Foundation (USOPF), the philanthropic arm of the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC), is embarking on its most ambitious fundraising journey yet. With the goal of raising $500 million, this campaign seeks to propel Team USA toward unprecedented success at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
“As we embark on this ambitious journey, we are committed to transforming the athlete experience by prioritizing their health, performance, and career development,” says Christine Walshe, president of the USOPF. “Our goal is to raise the bar for Team USA, ensuring our athletes have the resources and support they need to excel during every step of their journey on their way to the world stage.”
The One for All Campaign for Team USA aims to revolutionize the athlete experience by raising funds for three pivotal areas: athlete health and wellness, sports performance innovation, and athlete career and earnings. As an official philanthropic collaborator of the LA28 Organizing Committee, the foundation will support Team USA athletes, athlete programs, and national governing bodies ahead of—and well beyond—LA28.
“Our collaboration with the USOPF through the One for All campaign is pivotal in ensuring Team USA athletes have the best possible support as we head towards the LA28 Games,” says Janet Evans, LA28 chief athlete officer. “By investing in their health, performance, and career opportunities, we are building a legacy that will empower our athletes to achieve unparalleled success and inspire future generations.”
Since its inception in 2013, the USOPF has raised over $370 million for Team USA athletes and programs, significantly contributing to the development and success of U.S. Olympians, Paralympians, and hopefuls.
The foundation’s efforts have led to substantial advancement, including an expanded mental health program that now encompasses hundreds of providers offering both in-person and virtual counselling. Additionally, 40 national sports organizations have benefited from donor-funded technology and data projects, providing Team USA with a competitive edge. The foundation has also supported countless athletes with tuition assistance, enabling them to pursue higher education alongside their athletic endeavors.
