COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECTS:
We have put more than $250,000 worth of weights and weight equipment into 47 Greater Houston high schools since 2002.
We have awarded approximately $225,000 in scholarships to approximately 315 kids since 2000.
We have teamed up with the Houston Texans to distribute excess cleats and tennis shoes to needy area high schools since 2009. The Texans and NRG Energy Foundation also underwrote our Weight Room Program in 2020.
We teamed up with event founders Phil Camp and counselor Coby Rhoden, as well as HISD and the Houston Texans, for a Senior Showcase college tryout at the Texans’ Methodist Practice Facility. More than 1,400 high school youths have landed approximately $140 million in scholarship and grant offers from NAIA, NCAA Division II and NCAA Division III schools since 2011 from the highly successful event.
