Rising Stars Youth Foundation offers scholarships which provide our kids with access to superior private high schools offering life-changing opportunities. This unique scholarship program not only provides tuition assistance but also goes the extra mile to ensure the academic accomplishment and personal growth of each one of our scholars with a high-touch support system that acts as a “second family”.

For over 20 years, the Rising Stars Youth Foundation has utilized the power of team sports  to build character, promote education, and reinforce important values children need to make correct decisions in life. Rising Stars is a 24/7-365 days a year support system. Rising Stars becomes a bridge between family, school and community for these children with the goal to graduate every participant in the programs, issue free, college ready, and prepared to succeed in life.
