The Starfinder Foundation is a non-profit group that serves to educate underprivileged youths through after-school programs and camps. This tremendous community group teaches children leadership and life skills through both soccer and classroom-type education activities. Their foundation is looking to improve its facilities to increase their awareness and provide a better learning atmosphere for students and staff.
The exterior renovations include new insulated metal panels to improve energy efficiency, an abundance of south-facing glazing to introduce daylight to the soccer field and reduce the need for electric lighting, and the creation of a more intriguing, attractive facility that increases public awareness to Starfinder and its goal of educating inner-city children.
