To develop excellent young men through tennis

Our Mission:

Through financial aid and mentorship, A. Bright Future, Inc. is dedicated to supporting Black and Latino boys in navigating the world of junior tennis and beyond.

Our Target Population: A Bright Future, Inc. identifies Black and Latino boys between the ages of 7 and 12 from the inner-city who have the potential to compete on the USTA junior tennis circuit; and for whom sponsorship and mentorship could make the difference between a young man’s staying on a positive path led by competitive tennis, and avoiding negative influences that low income, urban life all too often has to offer boys of color.

Our Goals:

• Supplement the cost of competitive tennis for families in financial need

• Build the confidence that ABF boys need to succeed in tennis and in life.

• Address the isolation that boys of color often feel as they achieve higher levels of competitive tennis.

“I know first hand how crucial these elements can be to a junior player’s most formative years. ABF is here to fill the gaps to help them reach their full potential.”
