At the Storm, we believe in the power of sport as a catalyst for good. At the center of our social and community impact efforts are actions to drive positive change in our community. We invite you to learn more about the two areas of our work: StormCares and Force4Change. Each program is grounded in our Storm values of diversity, equity, inclusivity and community.
STORMCARES
StormCares is the heart of the Seattle Storm mission. Our engaged and passionate community is what sets the WNBA apart, and we strive to give back to the greater Seattle and Washington communities in ways that increase access to resources, health, and wellness. StormCares focuses on five areas: Storm Academy, Community Initiatives, Youth Basketball, Tickets for Kids, and Community Fundraising Support
FORCE4CHANGE
The Seattle Storm is committed to action around the promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Created in 2020, Force4Change is our comprehensive social justice platform that allows the Storm to act as a force to effect meaningful change in Seattle. Bringing together players, the front office, ownership, and partners, Force4Change focuses on five key areas of impact: Voting and Education, BIPOC Youth, Amplification of Black Women, Amplification of LGBTQ+ Leaders of Color, and Organizations Serving Black Communities.
