Programs and Services
The Holyfield Foundation provides programs and services dedicated to strengthening the lives of youth and their families by establishing and funding programs dedicated to their athletic, academic and spiritual development. While the Holyfield Foundation intends to continue its support of partner organizations to the best of our ability, we have developed and now intend to launch more of our own programs.
Programs
Beneficiaries
The following are organizations that the Holyfield Foundation provides grant support to annually:
Georgia Amateur Boxing Association
This organization, one that helped Evander Holyfield develop into an Olympic Champion, focuses on athletes age 8 to 34. The GABA offers these athletes an opportunity to succeed in their chosen sport of boxing with bouts held all over the state of Georgia. The Holyfield Foundation has been a proud sponsor of the GABA for more than a decade.
Quicksilver Track Club
Quicksilver Track Club was founded in 1979 and caters to the needs of inner-city youth, focusing on the development of the total athlete. A "no pass, no play" rule determines the eligibility of the athletes. This organization has a 0% pregnancy rate since its inception, as well as a 98% college acceptance with scholarship rate.
Warren/Holyfield Boys & Girls Club
Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta strive to enhance the lives of at-risk young people through safe and productive after-school programs. Children benefit from a positive place, results-oriented programming and a professional staff to guide them. As a private non-profit organization, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta improve young lives as well as the communities that surround and support them.
Future Projects
The following are project(s) that the Holyfield Foundation is in the process of launching:
Holyfield Youth Center (HYC)
The Holyfield Youth Center facility, to be located in the Campbellton/Greenbriar area of Atlanta, Georgia, will teach children the value of a strong religious foundation, the importance of family values, individual responsibility, parental respect, and academic excellence. Programs at the HYC will also promote good nutrition, physical development, teamwork and self-respect.
Completion Date: TBD
