Grants

The AthLife Foundation is seeking high school grant applicants willing to implement effective programming that will promote the ideals of Positive Youth Development through Sport, and the critical creation of a professional student-athlete development staff position, known as an Academic Athletic Coach.

High schools, who compete interscholastically, and seek to create their own programming to utilize sport as a powerful vehicle to promote academic achievement, develop leadership skills, and prepare deserving student athletes to compete in their future careers beyond sport are eligible to apply.
