Our Story
GoalX was founded with a simple observation: while some schools have surplus sports equipment gathering dust, others struggle to provide basic equipment for their students.
Our founder, a former physical education teacher, witnessed firsthand how limited access to sports equipment affected students' physical development and enjoyment of sports. This inspired the creation of a platform where schools could easily share resources.
What began as a small local initiative has grown into a nationwide platform connecting hundreds of schools, donors, and regulators in a collaborative ecosystem that benefits thousands of students.
Our Mission
"We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to play, grow, and thrive through sports—regardless of their school's budget."
Our mission is to create an equitable sports environment across all schools by facilitating the sharing of quality equipment, reducing waste, and building a community of schools that support each other.
Through our platform, we aim to:
- Increase access to sports equipment for underserved schools
- Reduce waste by giving unused equipment a second life
- Build connections between schools, donors, and sports organizations
- Promote physical activity and sports participation among all students
