Laying the Foundation for Lifelong Impact
PeakPath Foundation is raising
$500,000 during our 90-day
Founding Campaign to bring our mission to life. Be part of the beginning and help launch PeakPath Foundation and empower student-athletes nationwide.
The Founding Campaign marks the beginning of PeakPath Foundation’s mission to empower student-athletes nationwide. This inaugural fundraising effort will establish the foundation’s core programs, strengthen mentorship and scholarship opportunities, and set the standard for lasting change within the communities we serve.
A Message from the Founder
Hear directly from our founder as he shares the heart behind PeakPath Foundation, why it was created, the vision that drives it, and the mission that turns that vision into action.
Our Vision
To create a future where every student-athlete, regardless of background, has access to mentorship, education, and opportunity to thrive within a nationwide ecosystem of learning, leadership, and legacy that fuels economic mobility and community transformation.
Our Mission
PeakPath Foundation supports student-athletes through mentorship, scholarships, and leadership development initiatives that advance opportunity, inspire growth, and build pathways to lifelong success beyond the game.
Why This Campaign Matters
Talent is everywhere, but access and opportunity are not. Across the country, countless student-athletes possess the drive to excel, but lack the mentorship, guidance, and financial support needed to thrive beyond the game.
PeakPath Foundation was created to bridge that gap. Through this campaign, we are raising the resources to launch programs that equip student-athletes with the education, leadership skills, and life readiness tools needed to build sustainable futures for themselves and their communities.
Our Core Focus Areas
Academic Support & Mentorship
Helping student-athletes strengthen their academic foundation through tutoring, mentoring, and guidance from experienced professionals.
Leadership & Community Engagement
Cultivating confidence, responsibility, and civic impact through leadership development and service initiatives that prepare student-athletes to lead on and off the field.
Career & Life Readiness
Equipping student-athletes with the skills, mindset, and real-world experiences to succeed beyond athletics through career preparation, financial literacy, and personal development opportunities.
Health & Wellness
Promoting the mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing of student-athletes through programs that build balance, resilience, and self-care for long-term success.
Scholarships
Reducing financial barriers and expanding access to higher education through merit- and need-based awards that help student-athletes achieve their academic goals.
