Overview
Mission
WBP strives to help 100,000 students, ages 8 through 18, prepare for success academically, athletically, and socially by providing educational tools, life skills, and mentorship over the next 5 years, so they can develop the discipline and balance needed to tackle any challenges they may face. We will do this by activating 10 WardBoy Project Mentoring Programs by collaborating with local schools and community-based organizations, hosting 20 Ward Boy Camps, and 5 educational symposiums within 5 years to impact an additional 50,000 people looking for the inspiration needed to succeed in life.

The D.R.A.W. Mentoring Program aims to equip student athletes with the resources and support needed for a well-rounded experience that helps them reach their goals--To provide student-athletes with the platform and resources needed to have an all-inclusive experience that better prepares them to achieve their goals.The goal for our free WardBoy Project Bay Area Youth Football Academy (Football Camp) is to provide young players with the opportunity to improve their skills, develop a love for the game, and acquire valuable life lessons when we started in 2017. Our principal objective was to remove financial obstacles, guaranteeing that all families, regardless of their financial situation, could avail themselves of excellent sports programs.The Student-Athlete Symposium is an engaging and educational forum created to support young athletes who are dedicated to attaining success in both their chosen sports and their academic endeavors. Aspiring student-athletes, coaches, educators, and pecialists come together for the event to participate in interesting conversations, educational sessions, and networking opportunities.
