This weekend, FC Dallas takes on Orlando City SC in in a nationally televised match. And with the national broadcast on Univision, the Every Save Makes a Difference program will benefit a local Dallas non-profit.
This week, every save recorded will result in a donation of $500 worth of soccer equipment to AVANCE Dallas, whose mission is to unlock America’s potential by strengthening families in at-risk communities through effective parent education and support programs.This initiative, sponsored by Major League Soccer and Univision, focuses on providing soccer equipment for local, Hispanic-facing community-based organizations.
