The November Saturdays Foundation
Belong. Mentor. Achieve.
We use sports as an access point to create belonging, mentorship, and opportunity for youth and families impacted by adversity. Our work is focused on removing the real barriers that keep young people from showing up, staying connected, and having the chance to grow through the game.
