Be a Champion
to Children

Why join our village?
Not every child has a champion. Help us connect a network of community leaders to every local school, so that every child has support to reach their potential!
Change Starts With Us
Every child should have the connections and resources to thrive, but often children are disconnected and face life’s challenges alone. Together, we can be a village of support—connecting children to a brighter future.

Join Our Village
Doing this alone is impossible; it takes all of us working together to make a difference.
The Future Is Bright
We asked these kids about their hopes and dreams. Their vibrant answers remind us that the future is in good hands when we empower children to become the leaders they were born to be. Help us build a village of support around every school so that EVERY CHILD is connected to their full potential!
Our mission is possible because of our amazing sponsors!

What we know is that, win or lose, champions do not sit on the sidelines. They show up for their team – their community - every single day. These leaders build trust and inspire hope in those around them as they give people a vision for what is possible. Ultimately, champions pave the way for future leaders, and in so doing, champions change the world. Join us in the arena for the Summit! @bcbsaz @titansolarpowerinc @suns @phxoffcourt @benwallsfilms

Why sponsor a student’s STEM “Game Day” Field Trip? While STEM careers are the future of education, the research shows that more than 2/3rds of middle school students do not enter high school ready to start working toward a STEM career.
As Principal Ontiveros says, “You can’t dream about something you don’t know about.”
But together, we can give kids a vision for their career potential, as well as connections and resources to help them prepare. Early support makes the difference. Every student deserves a STEM Choice. Sponsor a student today!
