Our mission
The Edward R. Brooks Foundation supports underserved children and youth by harnessing the transformational nature of sports. The goal of the foundation is to provide athletic coaching and instruction combined with academic tutoring and life mentoring/coaching services. In so doing, we will help open doors by helping young people realize their true potential both by demonstrating what is possible in their lives, as well as what is required in the way of hard work and perseverance.
Our Focus
Athletics and Academics
As Mr. Brooks loved racquet sports in general and the game of squash specifically, the initial focus will be that of sharing the game of squash with underserved youth including court access, court time, and lessons. We believe sports and education together will help to broaden and grow their futures. As our foundation moves forward and we are able, we will look for additional opportunities to help young people through both other sports and additional academic tutoring. We have also granted need-based scholarships and hope to expand in this area as well.
