The Ideal life Community Hero
Welcome to The Ideal Life Community Hero program, where we celebrate and honor a local hero at each Battery home match whose noble efforts positively impact others within the Lowcountry.
Our program is designed to shine a spotlight on these individuals and organizations who are making a positive impact in our community. From first responders to volunteers, teachers to healthcare workers, we want to hear about the heroes who are making a difference in your neighborhood.
We are proud to support our community heroes in more ways than just recognition. When a community hero is selected, we will also make a donation towards a fundraiser or charity of their choice during an on-field celebration at a Charleston Battery home game. This donation is just one small way we can show our appreciation for their service and support the causes they care about.
The winner of the Betsy McAdams Award, which recognizes a person who best displays exemplary qualities of the game of soccer, community involvement, sportsmanship and contributions to the club, will be the first Community Hero honored in the following season’s home opener.
If you know someone who deserves to be recognized as a community hero, please nominate them today. Our team will review all submissions and select individuals or organizations to be honored at each home game.
Join us in honoring the everyday heroes in our community and supporting the causes they are passionate about. Nominate a community hero today and help us make a difference together.
2023 Submissions have been closed. Applications for 2024 are now open.
