The Weston FC Board of Directors, Coaches, Staff, Members and players are constantly involved in ways to improve local community related programs by volunteering, guiding and even providing financial support when needed.

Some of the community related programs are listed below:

 

FINANCIAL AID

Weston FC is a non-profit organization and relies on the income generated by player registrations to support its operational expenses. For those applicants that qualify, the Club has set aside a limited amount of funds designed to subsidize a small portion of their Registration Fees. These funds are designed to cover only a small portion of the fees, usually averaging 20% of the total amount due. Applications are only accepted and considered when accompanied by the corresponding initial registration payment. Priority is given according to the severity of the financial hardship. Financial Aid recipients will be required to volunteer a few hours during the Weston Cup & Showcase. Failure to volunteer, will disqualify future applications from consideration. Financial Aid Funds are extremely limited and should not be considered as scholarships. Weston FC does not provide merit scholarships to any premier players, regarding their level of skills.

PINK OCTOBER CAMPAIGN

Every year, during the month of October, more than 1,000 players hit the field wearing pink jerseys, pink socks and other pink items in support for Breast Cancer Awareness. Through this initiative, the Club has been able to raise over $3,000 each year to support a local Breast Cancer Support & Prevention Group.

SIKH FOUNDATION

Founded in 2018, The Sikh Youth Association of South Florida (SYA) is a non-profit organization which aims to identify, address and raise awareness of social issues in our community. Drawing from our Sikh heritage, our mission aims to engage youth in exercises of leadership and community service while fostering friendships and building community relations. As an organization, we hope to inspire the youth to become open-minded and inclusive leaders who are active members of society.

​One of our biggest projects is our Annual “A Race for Unity in Diversity 5K Run / Walk. The purpose of the event is to provide a family-friendly platform for people from different backgrounds, ethnicities, cultures and races to unite as a community. Our pre-race Circle of Prayer consists of religious and cultural leaders all over the community holding hands; it is the ultimate display of Unity in Diversity! Complete with ethnic foods, interactive cultural booths, and support from the local community, our event is fun and engaging for everyone! The proceeds of the race benefit the Town of Southwest Ranches College Scholarship Fund, which provides financial aid to students entering college. In 2019, we had over 750 attendees and raised $10,000; in 2020, we had over 1,000 attendees and raised $12,000; in 2021, we hosted a virtual race that garnered over 100 attendees and raised $5,000.
