About Us
Mission Statement
To bring Joy and new life to cards through donations to seniors and underprivileged kids throughout our communities.
Founder - Hometown HQ
New Life Sportscards was founded by Michael Weir in 2021. The love of Football and opening a pack of football has driven us to find opportunities to provide that same opportunity for others. Our non-profit is located in the heart of the 412 - Pittsburgh, PA. Pittsburgh is a town full of passion for its sports. This passion fits right into what we are building into our communities.
As an avid collector, Mike wanted other kids not to have the means to collect sports cards – to experience the joy of collecting sports cards and holding your favorite player in the palm of your hand.
New Life Sportscards LLC
Why New Life?
Our goal is to bring new life to old sports cards. Sportscards through the years get shoved in drawers and stored away. We want to bring New Life into the cards so that they may be appreciated by others. The excitement of which players you would be getting and if it might get your hometown hero. We hope to help others by using these donations to engage and better serve their communities.
No Joy Left
Joy - there was no better word to describe the feeling of getting to rip a new pack of cards. The sports card industry has been changing drastically throughout the years. Individuals and businesses buy out entire stores' worth of packs and boxes just to gain a profit. The industry has produced businesses solely built around buying and flipping boxes/cards. The industry has stripped the Joy right out of collecting. It's time to put it back!
New Life Sportscards is working towards gaining its federal registration as 501(c)(3) Nonprofit organization.
