    The Alzner Foundation - Karl and Mandy Alzner
    Oct 21 2026
    This week on Joyful Journeys, our Director of Development, Catherine Keller, sits down with former Washington Capitals player Karl Alzner and his wife, Mandy, to discuss their passion for giving back and the story behind the Alzner Foundation!

    Sports have always played an important role in Karl and Mandy’s lives, from their own childhood experiences to watching their children grow through athletics. Inspired by the positive impact of sports, they established the Alzner Foundation to support youth sports programs throughout the DMV, helping make organized sports more accessible to children in their community.

    Through the generosity of community partners and the success of fundraising events, the Alzner Foundation provides critical funding to organizations that help young athletes thrive. Their secret to hosting successful events? Keeping community, family, and fun at the heart of everything they do!

    One of their signature events, Swing Into Summer, brings together current and former professional athletes for a fun-filled softball event and a home run derby. The twist? These athletes aren't professional softball players!

    Tune in to hear how Karl and Mandy are using their love of sports to bring communities together, create opportunities, and make a lasting impact on the next generation of athletes!
