Empowering Youth. Transforming Communities Through Sports.
IYSEA × Sports 2 Share represents a united mission to empower youth, expand global engagement, and create sustainable community impact through sports.
Rooted in IYSEA’s long-standing foundation in international youth development, cultural exchange, and leadership training, this new chapter brings fresh energy through Sports 2 Share, a youth-led movement founded by student-athlete Klayton Lee.
Together, we transform gently-used sports equipment into meaningful opportunities for children and communities in need. By combining IYSEA’s global platform with S2S’s hands-on service model, young people gain the space, support, and inspiration to lead, serve, and uplift others—locally and globally.
We cultivate youth who are:
• globally aware
• socially responsible
• sustainability-minded
• committed to improving lives through sports and service
This partnership strengthens IYSEA’s mission while expanding it with the authenticity, innovation, and grassroots leadership of Sports 2 Share.
Unified as one initiative, we:
• break down barriers to sports access
• reduce equipment waste through redistribution
• build global connections through youth-led service
• empower future leaders to create a healthier, more inclusive world
Together, we are building an international sports community where young people can exchange, learn, and grow, while opening new pathways for cultural cooperation, talent development, and real-world impact.
One vision. One mission. Youth leading the change—through sports.
Founder Story
Klayton Lee is a student-athlete who believes that every child deserves the chance to play. Growing up in competitive volleyball, he saw how access to proper sports equipment can shape confidence, health, and opportunity. But he also noticed a gap—many families and communities cannot afford the gear needed to participate.
At age 14, he turned his passion into action and founded Sports 2 Share: a youth-led initiative that redistributes gently-used sports equipment to children and schools in need. Through hands-on service, Klayton empowers other young people to lead, serve their communities, and promote sustainability by giving sports gear a second life.
“Sports taught me teamwork and resilience.
I want every kid to experience that same chance.”
Today, Klayton continues to grow S2S through partnership with IYSEA’s global youth platform, creating new pathways for youth leadership and international exchange through sports.
