Overview
Mission
Athletes Without Barriers, Inc. is dedicated to igniting positive change in the lives of young athletes hailing from inner-city and underserved neighborhoods. Our mission is to create a nurturing and holistic environment that empowers the youth to reach their full potential both in the classroom and on the athletic field. All of our programs are free to participants.
What it reported doing in 2024
In the summer of 2024, Athletes Without Barriers, Inc. secured 12 discounted spots for boys from Essex County to participate in Makina Baseball Academy summer program. Makina Baseball Academy accepted all 12 youth participant for a flat rate program fee of $4,000 (making the cost per participant approximately $330 instead of the traditional $1,500 fee charged to enroll in this prestigious program). Athletes Without Barriers, Inc. paid the enrollment fees on behalf of all 12 youth through fundraising. This once in a lifetime opportunity allowed young athletes to train at a highly coveted baseball academy and gain exposure by competing in nine high-level baseball tournaments across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. We worked with our volunteers to ensure all players had transportation, food, and lodging, allowing the student athletes to focus on growth and performance.
