Better Together: Kensington Soccer Club Announces Techbuyer as New Sponsor
KENSINGTON, Pa. – Kensington Soccer Club today announced that Techbuyer, a leading provider of sustainable IT solutions, has become an official sponsor of the organization for the coming year.
Together with Techbuyer, Kensington Soccer Club will be able to balance its ongoing program expansion across the area with continued staff investment, helping the club further develop its operations to better serve children in their own neighborhoods.
“This sponsorship comes at the perfect time for us and fills a crucial gap,” KSC Executive Director Jim Hardy said. “We're reaching more children than ever with our after-school programs, but it's hard for some of those children to make it to our Saturday locations where they can build stronger connections and stay involved when their after-school program finishes. Techbuyer's sponsorship will help us expand our Saturday programs so we have one in walking distance of every child in the neighborhood so none of them are left out."

He was particularly impressed with hearing a lot of dialogue at the club about the power of positivity - something which Kevin truly believes in as well.
Kevin Towers, Techbuyer CEO commented:
“From my first visit to KSC, I could immediately tell that the club is doing really important work in the community, and all through the hard work and dedication of an inspiring bunch of individuals. The club truly puts into action the power of positivity, and the impact that this has on the local community is enormous. I’m delighted to kick-off Techbuyer’s sponsorship of KSC and help spread the message about the power of positivity!”
