Intentional Sports
CHANGING CHICAGO ONE CHILD AT A TIME
WHAT WE DID
This project is transformational for the city of Chicago. Located on the West Side, Intentional Sports is a professional-level sports campus that is putting the youth first and serving their whole being. Fortress launched a new website for Intentional Sports that lives up to the ambitious spirit that the project itself embodies.
THE CHALLENGE
Communicate the mission of Intentional Sports to a diverse audience – West Side families with children, potential donors and partners, and anyone who is interested in their project and aligned with their vision.
THE SOLUTION
Fortress prepped, built, and launched a website with accessible and engaging content, a strong and unmistakable visual brand, and user-friendly functionality.
video production
Using new technology and talent, Fortress filmed, produced, and edited a video for Intentional Sports that communicates their mission in clear terms and even clearer visuals.
INVESTOR DECK
As Intentional Sports opens their doors to the community and kicks off their programming, they need a base of support from investors who align with their values and want to be a part of the journey. Fortress built an investor deck that outlines not only the what of Intentional Sports, but more importantly, the why.
MORE ON INTENTIONAL
Nothing quite like the Intentional Sports campus exists anywhere in Chicago. It has the largest indoor turf field in the city, has NBA-grade hardwood floors in its basketball and volleyball gyms, and countless other features and amenities. And yet, it still offers entirely free programming for the over 300,000 local residents that live within a mile of the campus.

We can’t wait to see James continue to push boundaries of what is possible as a family advocate.
