We want to help encourage kids, help inspire dreams. We want to help children develop a strong work ethic, a sense of accountability and a relentless drive towards a goal.
We want to help create opportunities in our own hometowns to inspire the next All-American, the next Grammy winner, the next New York Times Best Selling Author. We want to inspire the next teacher, coach, mechanic... doctor, judge, actress, the next entrepreneur, chef or designer.
Ultimately, we want to inspire children in our communities to not only dream about their future, but help create opportunities to help them work towards achieving those goals.

WITH THE MAKE A PLAY FOUNDATION...
... your donations stay local, money raised in each area is reinvested in each region through youth and family grants
... children will be provided opportunities through academic or recreational grants in your hometown
> > > > > > > > > >
As a group, we believe we will be able to make an impact in our hometowns by providing children academic or recreational enrichment opportunities that will help them develop leadership skills, a sense of accountability and confidence.
Our vision is to provide grants to fund educational or leadership field trips, improve or build community playgrounds and athletic fields, develop scholarship and job training programs, purchase athletic equipment and uniforms, cover admission and tuition fees for lessons or camps, purchase musical instruments, provide computers and technology to local community centers and fund additional family-based programs.
Donations to the 'Make a Play Foundation' can be specified to go towards children in one of seven areas - the Panhandle; North Central Florida; Jacksonville and surrounding counties; Orlando and the East Coast; Tampa-St.Pete; Southwest Florida and Dade-Broward counties. Fans can also make a donation to go to the areas of most need.
Thank you for visiting and check back throughout the coming months for more updates!
