To all of those who applied… THANK YOU. We were overwhelmed with SO many amazing applications that our Scholarship Committee had a very tough decision to make. Thank you for your time and for your interest in the Foundation. We wish you all the best.
We are looking for volunteers to help us out throughout the year with a variety of opportunities.
Please consider joining us at area festivals throughout the summer, the Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Week in August, our #StongLikeJ5K race in May, our 4th Annual Blackbird Ball in November, Counting & Sorting Fuzzy Socks, Packing Track:33 boxes, and so much more.
We are a great resource for students 14+ looking for volunteer hours as well.
** Note not all opportunities will be available to 14-19 year olds due to restrictions from the event hosts themselves. We will note opportunities that are 14+ in the description. Thank
