Women Coming Together
Helping Each Other
Letter
from the Founder
Since I began coaching basketball, I have continuously noticed the inequities for women in the sport mirrored by those of life. I have always dreamed of being a successful basketball coach with no particular gender in mind. I worked hard and applied my family’s values to everything that I did. Integrity, honesty, discipline, responsibility and fun; I learned these values at home and in school. Each one of these values pushed me closer toward my dream.
Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to coach women’s basketball, recruit and meet hundreds of females across the country. All of them share one common bond; they all dream about their futures.
As a result, I’ve learned that success on the court was only a part of what I wanted to achieve. In 2006, I established the Legacy of Champions Foundation to inspire dreams in America’s young women because I believe in passing on the values that I received from my parents and teachers.
Through personal enrichment programs, scholarships and basketball clinics, the Foundation is helping young female athletes reach their dreams.
Please take a look around our website and learn more about our programs and events, the youth we’ve worked with and the sponsors who are helping to make it all possible. Thanks for visiting; I hope you’ll partner with us as we work to inspire America’s young women.
Sincerely,
Jacques Curtis
