Where we transform well-rounded athletes into competitive superstars
College sports are very popular in the United States and the championships are organized in divisions around different sports sanctioned mainly by the NCAA, the largest college sports organization.
In 2021, an estimated 67.3 percent of male student-athletes in the United States were white, while 16.5 percent were African-American.
According to the NCAA demographic database, Black student-athletes make up 16% of the student-athlete population. In Division, I, Black student-athletes are 20% of the population.
Many of our student-athletes of color, particularly those from high-poverty backgrounds, have aspirations to attend college, participate in sports, and earn a degree.
This is the ultimate goal.
PROBLEM IS…
Lack of Funding.
Many student-athletes in high-poverty neighborhoods often don’t have the capacity to fund their college education and access to free education is very limited.
Opportunity “gap” for children in high poverty demographics.
High-poverty neighborhoods typically have less access to collegiate scholarship opportunities, making it harder for children of color to transcend seemingly insurmountable sociological and economic factors.
Lack of Collegiate scholarships and access being provided to children of color.
Many kids from lower income families don’t have the same opportunities to get sponsored for a scholarship, and mos t of them cannot afford to go to college without one.
SPONSOR ONE STUDENT-ATHLETE TODAY!
You can spare nothing, or you can spare just $25 – which is still less than a cup of coffee per day.
The average student-athletes has to work over 40 hours in a week to afford one textbook.
That’s 19% of their weekly schedule that could be spent doing other things, like practicing with their teammates, participating in extracurriculars, or studying (to name a few).
Don’t let students have to make this choice. Sponsor a student today.
Amani is a student-athlete who was born and raised in Chicago.
He grew up in a community where you needed to watch out for your back to feel safe. As a result, he faced many obstacles as he grew up.
Despite the challenges, Amani has been able to overcome them with support from KDT Sports/Community Excel.
KDT Sports/Community Excel has provided Amani with an opportunity to develop his talents as an athlete while also preparing him academically for college. The program offers tutoring services, academic workshops, college prep classes, leadership development opportunities, mentorship networks, and more.
Amani says that the most important thing KDT Sports/Community Excel did for him was giving him hope. He says: “I didn’t think I would be able to go to college one day because of my grades… but KDT Sports helped me change my life.”
KDT Sports/Community Excel planted a seed of hope in Amani by preparing him to obtain collegiate scholarships and academic degrees—and ultimately change his life. Listen to how they did it!
We want to level the playing field
for children in low income demographics by providing
the same opportunities for them too.
Help us achieve our goal by funding for the facilities they need to support their success for kids in high-poverty neighborhoods, who live in a “championship community”, but can’t afford to go to college because they lack the sponsorships and the facilities and resources they need.
Be a part of the fulfillment of our vision to have an impact on the lives of our young student-athletes through SPORTS.
