Who
We Are


Zack Leffler was more than just a talented soccer player—he was a mentor, a leader, and a beloved friend. Growing up, the soccer field was where he found confidence, friendship, and joy. He believed in the transformative power of sport and was always the first to lend a hand, both on and off the field.
​
Zack’s tragic passing in December 2023 left a void in the lives of everyone who knew him. But his love for the game and his community is something that will live on forever. The Zack Leffler Memorial Fund was established as our way of ensuring that his legacy of kindness, generosity, and passion continues to inspire future generations.
​
Through scholarships, donations, and community outreach programs, our mission is to ensure that every child in the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region has the opportunity to play, grow, and thrive—regardless of financial circumstances. Zack’s spirit lives on in every young player we support.

2025 RECAP
On April 5, 2025, the community came together at Kenton County Golf Course to honor Zack with laughter, connection, and hope. Despite the rain, over 100 golfers, volunteers, friends, and family raised $24,000—funding scholarships and community impact. This year, we were proud to award four scholarships to high school seniors in our area in Zack’s name.
