Our story

Sports play a critical role in the lives of many young people, fostering essential character traits such as teamwork, leadership, discipline, and accountability. These values are an integral part to personal and professional success, especially for students facing adversity who must overcome obstacles to achieve their goals. We believe that students can navigate life's challenges confidently and gracefully by harnessing the lessons learned from soccer, including resilience, problem-solving, and collaboration. This scholarship seeks to celebrate and reward exceptional Hispanic students who exhibit outstanding academic performance and actively participate in a competitive soccer team. Through it, we aspire to help equip young men and women with the tools they need to thrive on and off the field.

Our goal

I created the "Fútbol is Life" Scholarship to help Hispanic, soccer-playing students pay for their college tuition. My family and I will be funding the first 2 $1000 scholarships, but our intention is to reach out to friends and family for additional support in order to be able to award either larger scholarships, or more scholarships.
