Programs We Support


We partner with organizations which align with our mission and values. Their programming is focused on making kids better through youth/adolescent development, education, athletics and life skill training. We review and consider key partners, funding history, available funds, known community needs and long-term partnership opportunities when selecting them.

CINCINNATI GOLDEN GLOVES FOR YOUTH

With programming tailored to kids’ physical, emotional and mental needs, it provides a healthy environment for them to develop discipline and self-esteem as well as personal and athletic skills. Amateur boxing programs are open all year to kids ages 8 to 18 at all levels of physical fitness.
