WWFC focuses on increasing self-esteem in underserved Bay Area children through interaction with inspiring athletic role models and confidence building experiences.

Kids learn to believe in themselves, and with encouragement and guidance from college and professional athletes, students are motivated to excel.

Corporate Experiences extends WWFC’s confidence-building work with low-income kids into high school via our new STEM-focused career awareness program.
