Soccer meets philanthropy on Saturday, November 20th, with the third annual Celebrity Soccer Match presented by SWAPP Protocol. Back and better than ever after a one-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the match will feature celebrities including Jorge Masvidal, Rashad Jennings, Miss Universe contestants and Sports Illustrated models Kristen Louelle Gaffney & Mara Martin and World Series Baseball player Brayan Villarreal among others. This year’s star-studded fundraising event proudly supports the Miami Beach Education Foundation, and, over the last two events, has raised $300,000 for organizations that promise inclusion of children and adults with disabilities.

Celebrity Soccer Match was founded by Julianna Strout, a North Bay Village Commissioner and Miss America contestant that has dedicated her time and resources over the last decade to raising awareness and organizing events that promote inclusion in sports.

“The mission of this event has always been to focus on abilities and not disabilities,” said Julianna Strout, Founder of Celebrity Soccer Match. “I’ve always felt that sports are a great medium to promote inclusivity, and with this event, we do just that. Celebrity Soccer Match is the only co-ed sports event that features all types of sports legends and children & young adults with disabilities, all engaging together on the beach. Our goal with this year’s event is to raise $125,000 for community-wide initiatives.”

Thousands of guests will be welcomed to the star-studded event, including sports fans, socialites, industry professionals, notable philanthropists, and city officials with a common goal of raising funds for the Miami Beach Education Foundation. Celebrity Soccer Match will feature seven-on-seven friendly games inclusive of youth & adults with disabilities and celebrities & professional athletes. Guests will be able to enjoy a VIP lounge with Anheuser Busch and Moet Hennessey and brand activations from Miami FC and Ocean Auto Club. Previous participants of this event include Kate Upton, Jason Lewis, Olivia Culpo, Santana Moss, Rashad Jennings, and more.

The matches will take place on November 20, 2021, beachside between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. at the North Beach Bandshell Sand-bowl at 7275 Collins Avenue in Miami Beach, FL. General admission is free and open to the public, and VIP Lounge tickets are available for $250. All-access passes for ten tickets are available at $6,500.
