  1. Homeless World Cup: We donated 3 pitches to the Homeless World Cup Tournament that took place in Cardiff, Wales. 
  2. Miami Edison High School: Alongside worldwide sporting goods manufacturer, adidas, we co-donated a full-size multi-purpose field to Miami Edison High School in Miami, FL which is a lower-income school district and will be highly utilized and valued by their students. 
  3. Non-profit organizations: Act Global financially contributes to organizations such as CARE, World Vision, and Water.org. Act Global employees also partake in local charitable organizations by sponsoring and participating in Dresses for Dreams Global 5K, assisting with Blue Santa, and volunteering at a local food bank. 

We believe in being the change we want to see in the world which is why we strive to become philanthropic leaders in the synthetic turf industry. We ask ourselves and partners to be socially responsible and environmental stewards.
