Presented by Progress Energy
Posted on Sat, Aug 4, 2012

The Carolina RailHawks’ Spread Your Wings Charity will host the second annual Kicks for Kids Night presented by Progress Energy on Saturday, August 4th at 7:00 p.m. The Spread Your Wings Charity has teamed up with the United Way, Boys and Girls Club, and other local non-profits to provide their youth and families the opportunity to experience a RailHawks game. With help from local businesses the RailHawks will be able to offer this opportunity to thousands of local youth.

Individuals and businesses have made pledges throughout the year ranging from $50 to $2,500 that will give a child the chance to enjoy a RailHawks game and meet with RailHawks players.

The RailHawks organization and its Spread Your Wings Charity is committed to growing the game of soccer in the Triangle area while having a positive impact in the community. Local businesses have stepped up with their donations and shown their shared passion for professional soccer and young people.

The Spread Your Wings Charity is the charitable arm of the RailHawks with tax exempt status of 501(c)(3).  Spread Your Wings Charity focuses on serving the children of the Triangle community through various programs promoting soccer and teaching the importance of healthy living and being active.  Programming has included instructional week-long soccer camps, soccer clinics, educational visits to elementary and middle schools, and the Progress Energy Kicks for Kids game.
