Supporting international students & athletes navigate their transition to the United States.
To honor the life and legacy of Brent "BJ" Johnson by providing mentoring, training, and other supportive services to students and elite athletes across the globe.
Read MoreInternational athletes often struggle to acclimate to their new environment in the United States. Coach BJ would receive calls daily from players seeking assistance in the following areas:
Cultural Adaptation - Overcoming language barriers, navigating different cities, where to meet new people
Development Resources - Connecting with skill development trainers, open gyms, local mentors, and more
Financial Support - Understanding the US financial system, personal budgeting, grocery shopping, financial planning
We're seeking to build a support network of benefactors across the world that are passionate about helping international students & athletes thrive in the US way of life.
Mentoring - Frequent conversation helps tremendously to overcome language barriers
Daily Needs - College students are needy. We want families that can assist with groceries, school supplies, and miscellaneous daily needs
Local "Host" Family - Ultimately, we seek to provide the things that students would feel more comfortable asking a family member rather than their university
