Completely KIDS (completelykids.org) and Union Omaha are teaming up to support Omaha’s KIDS through a growing partnership that brings professional athletes into the community and creates meaningful experiences for local youth.
In August, Union Omaha players Diego Gutierrez, Camron Lawrence, Sergio Ors Navarro and Edrey Cáceres joined Completely KIDS for its annual FORE! The KIDS Golf Scramble, which raised more than $67,000 for local children and families.
The partnership continued in October when Cáceres, Lawrence and Ors Navarro, along with Union Omaha Sporting Director Jamie Henderson, visited Completely KIDS headquarters to host a soccer clinic for students.
“I had such an amazing time with the KIDS,” said Cáceres. “Getting to spend some time with them and seeing them happy was amazing. I enjoyed every second of it.”
“Partnerships like this give our KIDS an opportunity to see community engagement in action,” said Lacey Locklear, Chief Development Officer at Completely KIDS. “When Union Omaha players show up, give their time and connect directly with our KIDS, they are setting a powerful example of what it means to be invested in your community.”
From supporting Completely KIDS on the golf course to connecting with students in the gym, Union Omaha continues to demonstrate its commitment to the Omaha community.
