CTA Spotlight: Inspiring Children Foundation

Erin Maher | September 19, 2018


The Marty Hennessy’s Inspiring Children Foundation has been helping youth in the Las Vegas community to excel both in the classroom and on the tennis court to better aid them on their quest to attend college. 

 

The Foundation’s goal is to provide the ultimate environment to become the best in all areas of life equipping them with life skills, mentoring and mindfulness capabilities. 

 

Hosted out of Lorenzi Park, the Foundation provides plenty of program for the Las Vegas youth both on and off the court,  including SAT Prep, tutoring, Book Club, Educational breakfasts, and free tennis program. 

 

Serving at-risk youth ages 3-20, the Foundation has seen tremendous results for the 500 participants it serves annually. 115 students have received both academic and athletic scholarships to college, and are currently enrolled in schools such as Yale, Harvard, Vanderbilt and Villanova University.
