United Athletes Foundation (UAF)

If you're already an Amazon.com shopper anyway, here's another way to help support the charitable efforts of the United Athletes Foundation, Inc, a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization focusing on Memphis and the vacinity. It doesn't cost the shopper another dime. UAF, which was formed and is based from Atlanta, GA., is the sponsor of Memphis Magic Basketball, an AAU Boys Basketball team that competes several times each season in AAU, D1, and Church League games and tournaments ...locally, regionally, and nationally. Reggie Howard is the co-founder and CEO of the foundation. The program is FREE (no membership costs) and consists of one 5th grade and one 6th grade team at this time with goals of expanding. Our goal is to empower Memphis Area youth athletes in the importance of improving their grades, attendance, and conduct, not only succeeding on the basketball court. The team participates in community service activities, giving them a since of charitable giving and pride in their communities. The implementation of a workbook curriculum, the S.O. What! Literacy, Life Skills, & Character Education Curriculum, is in our immediate plans to offer to 8-18 year old boys and girls in the Memphis Area. The curriculum teaches financial literacy, life skills, character building, communication skills, handling disappointments, relationships, goal setting, and the value of hard work. PLEASE help us support out youth and offer them an opportunity to better their lives, some who are at-risk youth. All you need to do is shop as you usually do through this designated link, and Amazon will automatically donate 0.5% of qualified purchases to UAF. And if not an Amazon.com shopper, give it a glance. You just might find an item or two. See more
