WASHINGTON, D.C.—With support from the American Beverage Association and the D.C.Beverage Association, DC SCORES today announced expansion of its after-school programming to more schools in Ward 8.

The partnership with the American Beverage Association and the D.C. Beverage Association will allow DC SCORES to expand these important programs in Ward 8.

To people who believe in a well-rounded childhood, DC SCORES is the quality, team-based approach providing youth with the arts, athletics, and academics that will engage, enrich, and improve their lives. DC SCORES builds teams through after school programs for more than 800 low-income D.C. youth at 27 schools by instilling self-expression, physical fitness, and a sense of community. DC SCORES accomplishes this with an innovative model combining poetry and spoken word, soccer, and service-learning year-round. We have worked with over 6,000 students since our founding in 1994 and we aim to serve EVERY child in the District deserving of a team who does not have one. To learn more, visit www.DCSCORES.org.
