Community Relations

Orlando City Soccer Club, in partnership with MLS WORKS, Major League Soccer’s community outreach initiative, is focused on addressing important social issues and working to improve the communities where we live and play our games. Collectively, we are focused on:
  • anti-discrimination / diversity and inclusion
  • environmental sustainability/responsibility 
  • pediatric cancer research/treatment
  • youth enrichment/health and wellness  

The OCSC Community Relations department has established policies regarding Player and Mascot Appearance Requests and  Charitable Item Donation Requests to create consistency and fairness to the organizations that ask for our support. We attempt to fulfill as many requests as possible but cannot guarantee that every request will be met. Due to the large number of inquiries we receive, we face the unfortunate task of making decisions and allocating resources responsibly. Please submit your request via the online request forms - DO NOT email, fax, mail, or call, as these requests will NOT be accepted. *Please note that we DO NOT fulfill monetary sponsorship requests of any kind. Thank you.

We understand that community needs are abundant. Orlando City Foundation, a certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, was established separately from the Club to raise funds for charitable and philanthropic programs and projects for the underserved in our Central Florida community. The Foundation focuses on children and their families with a holistic approach to health and wellness that includes:
  • encouraging physical activity by providing free soccer programming and equipment
  • creating safe places to play by funding/building soccer mini pitches
  • cultivating sustainable food systems by investing in local farmlettes and food education

To accomplish our mission, the Orlando City Foundation is tasked with raising the necessary funds annually. We host several fundraising events where we invite our supporters, fans, and members of the larger community, to engage and learn about the work that we do. Stay up-to-date with upcoming events and opportunities by visiting the Orlando City Foundation website or by following us on social media via Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.  Thank you.
