GC SCHOLARSHIPS + PRO SPORTS EXPERIENCE
The Game Changers Scholarship and Pro Sports Ex[erience is a nationwide program that recognizes the positive impact student-athletes have in their community while also encouraging them to be well-rounded citizens. Our scoreboard’s algorithm uses a student’s GPA, attendance, disciplinary infractions, extracurricular activities, etc. to put student-athletes in the running for a scholarship AND an all-expenses-paid experience to attend a pro sports experience such as visiting the New York Yankees and New York Giants facilities!
The end goal is to use healthy competition to create a portfolio highlighting student achievements while incentivizing education and community involvement.

How Can Your School Get Involved?
Game Changers Leadership Summit & Combine
The Leadership Combine is framed through the LENS OF SPORTS! The event is a full day of seminars, open dialogue, lunch, and breakout sessions discussing important character values:
- Financial Literacy
- Social/Emotional Intelligence
- Recruiting and Academic Standards
- Health and Mental Fitness
- Social Media Etiquette
- Police Relations
- College/Employer Interview
This is a day of immersion. We take high school athletes out of their typical environment to aid in the conversation of becoming a responsible student, regardless of their aspirations, in order to continue athletics at the high school, collegiate or professional level.
DETERMINED
To Make a Difference
Change is where growth occurs. In 2013, I moved back to the continental US to make a positive difference in the community that has given me so much. Creating a nonprofit organization for our youth has been the most challenging, yet rewarding journey of my life. From the beginning, Game Changers has been on a mission to be both engaging and impactful in reaching our student-athletes! Since 2014, Game Changers has worked with over 4,400 students nationwide. My foundation was Faith, Family, and Football, and today, my goal is to continue creating like-platforms that encourage the athletes of today to be well-rounded, educated leaders who continue to give back tomorrow. We are asking individuals and businesses to have a direct impact in the most sustainable aspect of the student-athlete–their character development.
