Proceeds
from the Children's Classic will provide a $3,000 scholarship for a
deserving high school senior who resides in a shelter or group home to
attend college classes or a technical or trade school. The uncertainties
of life, a lack of personal attention, and often frequent changes from
one school to another make it difficult for homeless children to
maintain the “B” average needed to qualify for the Hope Scholarship.
There are many homeless children who are smart, hard-working, and
deserving of support. This scholarship will give one child that extra
helping hand that will hopefully put a young man or woman on a
successful and rewarding life path.
Proceeds from the tournament will also support
Project One on One: our academic mentoring program

Career Preparation Workshops: creating resumes and teaching interview skills, for mothers living in shelters
Thanksgiving: providing turkeys and filling food pantries
12 Days of Caring Toy & Gift Drive: providing gifts, parties, and fellowship
Friends Indeed: matching groups or companies with a home or shelter to donate supplies, services, and events
