The Starting XI Campaign is the official launch of the Riverside Soccer Initiative, brought to you by the Edgar Family Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to empowering youth through sport.

This campaign invites 11 local businesses and individuals to step into the game—literally—by sponsoring one of the 11 positions in a traditional soccer starting lineup. Each sponsor becomes a “team captain,” responsible for rallying support, spreading the word, and raising funds tied to their chosen position number.

All funds raised will directly benefit the boys’ and girls’ soccer programs at Arlington High School and local club players, helping provide essential gear, tournament travel, coaching support, and player scholarships.

With an interactive leaderboard hosted by Givebutter, donors and team captains can track progress, celebrate milestones, and inspire friendly competition—all for a great cause.

This is more than a fundraiser—it’s the start of a movement to uplift Riverside soccer, build community pride, and create opportunities for student-athletes to thrive.
