Arden Pala, Founder
Hello! My name is Arden Pala, and I am the founder of Sports4Kids, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing access to sports for children from low-income and homeless backgrounds. I started Sports4Kids with the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to play sports, regardless of their financial circumstances. Through various programs and initiatives, we aim to empower youth by promoting teamwork, leadership, and physical activity. I’m passionate about making a positive impact in our community, and I’m excited to continue expanding Sports4Kids with the help of our incredible team and volunteers to reach even more children in need.
Ally Tanigawa, Director of Social Media
Hello! I’m Ally Tanigawa, a second-year Business Marketing student with a minor in honors Interdisciplinary Studies. My passion for marketing led me to San Diego State University, where I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and studying in the Weber Honors College. During my freshman year, I was elected Service Director for my sorority, Kappa Alpha Theta, and now serve on the Executive Board as Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. These leadership roles have provided me with valuable experience, and I’m eager to continue learning from my mentors and peers throughout my undergraduate journey. I’m thrilled to be part of the Sports4Kids team and look forward to contributing to its mission!
