It’s a cause that means a lot to Carrie.
“Sports were a big part of my life growing up, so it’s important to me that girls across the country get those same opportunities,” Carrie says. She hopes the cause empowers “hundreds of girls across the country to learn, grow and dream, teaching them to do what they love later in life.”
The recent pledge is the third donation as a part of a wider $500,000 commitment to support girls youth sports across the nation.
