About Us

Founded in 1989, Athletes for Life™ is a non-profit foundation dedicated to outreach programs aimed at engaging students and adults in our community, and improving lives. We strive to prepare our students to become life-long learners - to build leaders by nurturing their academic excellence, and by fostering their physical, social and emotional development to succeed and excel. 

 

AFL believes that helping our youth establish strong self-image and good character will aid them in handling many of the social and personal issues that will arise throughout their lives. By providing them with life skills, we can help them become productive members of our society as they evolve into leaders amongst their peers, to then motivate and help others handle the perils of peer pressure.


Working in partnership with families and the community, Athletes for Life™ is all about Creating Champions, On And Off The Field.
