ACKNOWLEDGMENT:
Established in 2004 we are a Not-for-Profit organization whose goals are to develop, support and promote programs and educational initiatives that enrich the lives of youths. Additionally, the Fund supports collaborative efforts among educational institutions, youth organizations, and faith-based groups. All proceeds from the Annual Ray Mickens Celebrity Golf Tournament go to support the Champions Fund programs.
This wonderful outreach program supports the Reading Contest, which is geared toward middle school students who are encouraged to read books and write essays related to their reading to win an NFL Weekend, and the Mentoring Program which aims to motivate all high school students to continue their education beyond graduation. In five years, over 1,500 youth have participated in the Celebrity Weekend Football Camp and Health Fair; and 3,500 have participated in the reading contest and in the mentoring program!
