Building fields for dreams to come true.

Video caption:
The "Nairobi Field of Dreams" is IfWeBuildIt.org's pilot project. 

IfWeBuildit.org is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, based in the U.S. and Kenya. 

"We" are a volunteer-run and community-driven effort working to build the first baseball and softball fields near Nairobi, Kenya. 

We believe in the power of collaboration to build sports infrastructure, stronger communities, and improve the lives of young people.

As "we build it" we're helping to grow the game and create spaces where dreams can come true; increased and equalized access to play, education, and opportunity

If we build it, anything is possible.

Our Initiatives

We have a number of focus areas that have grown from our efforts to build fields for dreams to come true.

 #WeWill Play 

Fostering community through play, practice, and performance

We believe a strong, collaborative community is an essential part of baseball and softball infrastructure. Our approach helps grow the game even more by building collaborative partnerships to increase skill development and regular play.

Access to baseball and softball for women and girls

Baseball and softball can teach young girls and women valuable skills and lessons. By increasing access to these sports, we hope to help empower girls and women to be confident, strong, and successful both on and off the field. We also believe modeling equal access helps young men learn the value of inclusion and team work.
