Becca's Maccabi USA Soccer Fund

Hi! My name is Becca Lewis, and I was selected to represent the United States on the soccer field this summer for the 14th European Maccabi Games in Berlin, Germany. This would be the experience of a lifetime, and an outstanding way to cap off my career.

Maccabi USA, the team I will be playing for this summer, is a non-pofit organization that works to preserve and perpetuate the American Jewish community through creating Jewish pride, strengthening Jewish bonds, and growing Jewish identities. Maccabi USA combines athletic opportunities with Jewish experiences. This summer over 3,000 Jews will meet in Berlin, Germany to compete, learn, and grow together.

Athletics opens the doors for so many opportunities. It gave me the experience of being both a DIII and DI athlete at Ithaca College (2010-2014) and Central CT State University (2015). Athletics is now giving me the opportunity to play the sport I love in a country I have never visited.

Unfortunately, this amazing experience does not come without a cost. Since Maccabi USA is a non-profit organization, each player must pay $5,800. I am looking forward to this opportunity and any donation, small or large, would be helpful. Thank you.
