The program is a pilot program and is looking for support from the community. The girls will be running a fundraising event on May 31st 2008 at the Harrisburg City Islander game to raise money to support their program. CPYSL has been a great supporter of the program and has helped the Foundation provide great soccer opportunies for the players.
