Our Impact
Our Mission
The YES Foundation DC uses the Joy of Sports as tools to foster positive character development, social and emotional learning skills, academic achievement, and improved health among youth living in underserved communities within the Washington DC Area.
Our Vision
To be a representative of the changing lives within the youth in underserved communities in Washington DC.
Our Impact
Over the years, The YES Foundation has made it a focal point to provide for youth who are growing up in underserved neighborhoods in Washington DC. We are able to provide our youth from ages 7 - 16 with academic support, social emotional learning, and sporting activities each weekend.
As our youth grow into difficult situations through public housing, they are limited to certain resources that involves academic, emotional needs, and youth activity. We want to give our youth everything that they deserve. Our youth deserves the same resources and opportunities other communities receive.
