Behind every fact is a face. Behind every statistic is a story. Behind every catch phrase is a young person whose future will be lost if something is not done immediately to change his or her reality. Help give these young men a fighting chance. They have chosen to be student athletes and stay in school. Sports are a key factor in some young men staying in school and staying focused academically. They are a bunch of young men that are free spirited, caring and who love to have fun. The school has a great culture with great staff support, but it also sits in a poverty stricken neighborhood. The young men continue to push forward and achieve the unthinkable with all that surrounds them. We are in the inner city of Chicago, plagued by violence, but every opportunity they get to be a part of something positive and effect change they jump at the chance. Your donation not only helps those that are less fortunate, but it gives them hope that someone cares.
