"Making A Difference For Today's Youth"
Our" Literacy Champs Program" combines a rigorous
physical boxing regiment with mandatory Nutrition and
Literacy classes. Our participants receive extensive training in
boxing techniques and routines, in preparation for future
amateur sparring matches. All participants also attend
mandatory Literacy classes that reinforce basic practical
comprehension skills, in addition to Health classes that stress
proper nutrition, diet and exercise. Fighters also participate in
field trips that extend what they learn in the gym . These
include attending amateur and professional boxing matches.
All fighters use authentic equipment from Everlast, the world
renowned manufacturer of first class boxing equipment. Each
Literacy class supports and reinforces the Academic
Standards that are implemented in the District of Columbia
Public School System.
