More than the game, It’s the journey
Empowering youth to thrive through sports by focusing on personal growth, leadership, and teamwork, on and off the court
Empowering youth to thrive through sports by focusing on the journey.
The Journey Over Destination Foundation is dedicated to empowering youth to thrive through sports. We focus on cultivating positive mindsets, fostering leadership, and promoting teamwork to achieve personal success both on and off the court.
