Did you know that less than 6% of NCAA Division I baseball players are African-Americans?
Did you know that 60% of African-American males will not graduate from high school within the Atlanta Public School System?
L.E.A.D. creates positive outcomes for inner city at risk minority youth by leveraging the relationship between education, athletics and service. We are using baseball to transform Atlanta through our L.E.A.D. Ambassadors.
