Our Story

Empowering Athletes & Veterans

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting the whole athlete — mind, body, and academics — at no cost to those who need it most.

Who We Are

Primal Sports Charities was founded in 2023 in Carlisle, Pennsylvania with a single conviction: that access to mental health support, academic resources, and scholarship opportunities should never be limited by financial circumstance.

We serve student-athletes and veterans across Pennsylvania — partnering with universities, licensed counselors, and community leaders to deliver programs that create real, lasting change.

Our Core Values

Four principles that guide every program, partnership, and decision we make.

Always Free

Every service we provide — counseling, tutoring, scholarships — is offered at zero cost to participants.

Confidential & Safe

All mental health services are delivered by Licensed Professional Counselors in a secure, judgement-free environment.

Community-Driven

We work alongside universities, coaches, and community leaders to ensure our programs meet real needs.

Excellence-Focused

We hold our programs to the highest standards — because the athletes and veterans we serve deserve nothing less.

University Partners

Proud to work alongside leading Pennsylvania institutions.
