MONETARY
SUPPORT
Scholarship awards for junior or senior student-athletes who attend target metro-Atlanta high schools and who have faced a challenge or hardship. Some (not all) examples listed below.
Death of immediate family member while in high school
Terminal illness of self or immediate family member while in high school
Parent incarcerated while in high school
Sub-optimal housing / loss of family home
Season-ending injury during junior or senior year
MENTORSHIP
We will pair these student-athletes with a mentor for one to two semesters. Our mentors will be former student-athletes of the Atlanta & South Fulton communities.
During the course of the mentorship program, mentors and mentees will participate in planned learning opportunities to strengthen the relationship and develop what we hope will be lifetime bonds.
MOTIVATION
Our ultimate goal is to motivate previous mentees to reach back and pull forward by volunteering as mentors in future program years.
