The Best of Both Worlds Foundation
Starting in 2005, The Best of Both Worlds Foundation
is a non-profit organization that empowers and mentors
local young men and women of all ages through programs
that cultivate academic and athletic achievement by
developing leadership, communication, and other life
skills to make a difference in society. Many participants
of the foundation have athletic aspirations, but lack
the big picture understanding of the importance of education.
Additionally, some students lack the resources, focus,
and role models to maximize their potential academic
and athletic success. The two-fold mission of the organization
involves maximizing athletic talents of each participant
while honoring intellectual enhancement through the
rewarding of college scholarships for the most deserving
students.
In the short three year history of The Best of Both
Worlds Foundation, generous donations from sponsors
have enabled the awarding of fifteen scholarships to
deserving students. While providing financial assistance
to pursue academics is a core focus of the foundation,
its true impact is evident in the confidence and integrity
instilled in each participant through foundation programs
like basketball clinics, trips to meet college and professional
players, guest speakers, and our Annual Scholarship
Breakfast; allowing them to make a greater positive
impact on society.
With your help The Best Of Both Worlds is poised to
challenge today’s youth and encourage them to
take their place as leaders of the next generation.
