For the past two years we’ve been a proud sponsor of Give and Go Athletics, a sports based youth development program to provide therapeutic and athletic programs to children in the community. They offer activities like basketball, baseball, soccer, school recess coaching, mentoring and creative arts.
Executive Director Andre Wright breaks down their Mission, Vision, and Operations:
Mission – Give and Go uses sports and athletics to promote health, human development and informal learning.
Vision – Give and Go seeks to create opportunities for children and families to prevail. We seek the combined efforts of the community to promote positive change in Philadelphia.
How We Operate – We use sports and athletics to bring individuals from different backgrounds together to succeed. We serve children and families through community engagement and focus on using the resources that are readily available to us. We promote social entrepreneurship and invest in people and the community. We identify the relationship between sports and spirituality and stress teamwork and perseverance to power ourselves through obstacles.
