How We Turned a College Passion into a Lifelong Mission Ep. 5

In this episode, we dive into the inspiring journey of how a simple idea turned into a lifelong mission. It all began when Max Smith, who grew up in an entrepreneurial family, felt a deep sense of purpose after volunteering at homeless shelters during high school. That experience planted the seed for what would eventually become the InSports Foundation.

Fast forward to college, where Max met Andrew Deters and Bridget Smith. The three of them shared a passion for giving back and a love for sports. Together, they took that initial spark and turned it into something much bigger—a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to helping kids access the life-changing benefits of sports.

Today, the InSports Foundation has impacted over 60,000 kids by providing free camps, scholarships, and team sponsorships. In this episode, Max, Andrew, and Bridget share the story behind the foundation, the challenges they faced, and how they turned a college passion into a thriving organization that continues to make a difference in the lives of thousands of children.

Tune in to learn about the heart and hustle behind the InSports Foundation, and how you can get involved in their mission to give every child the chance to play.
