Who We Are
U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Foundation
The Foundation #
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting Team USA athletes on and off the field of play. As the fundraising arm of the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC), the USOPF generates philanthropic support to empower Team USA athletes to achieve sustained competitive excellence and well-being.
100% of gifts to the USOPF go directly to athletes and the high-performance programming that supports them.
With generous contributions from donors across the United States, the USOPF funds resources like coaching, equipment, mental health resources, tuition grants, training and travel stipends, and more. Since it was founded in 2013, the USOPF has raised more than $125 million for U.S. Olympians, Paralympians and hopefuls.
