Overview

Mission

The Randy Walker Legacy Foundation was established to recognize and support organizations and causes that connect with the beliefs and values of the Randy Walker family and to continue the legacy of Coach Randy Walker, who spent his career mentoring young coaches. We will focus on supporting young people with a desire to become coaches, with emphasis at the collegiate level in football, although not restricted to that level or sport. We believe coaches have a tremendous power of influence over young people as positive role models. In addition, we plan to support veterans in pursuing a career after their military service has ended, with emphasis on those wishing to become coaches. We believe the discipline and hard work associated with serving in the military translates well into coaching as a profession.

What it reported doing in 2025
