BYAA services contribute to success at every age and stage of development, leveraging athletics to improve educational outcomes. For the vulnerable students in El Paso, this means a chance to master the overwhelming barriers they face to higher education and general wellbeing. Your compassion and generosity have allowed BYAA to establish programs to keep El Paso youth continuously engaged, beginning as early as Kindergarten and guiding them all the way through high school.

Our goal of emphasizing the importance of education and using athletics as an incentive has impacted many families living in the Paso del Norte region.

In 24 years of work in the Paso del Norte region, BYAA has served thousands of student-athletes and their families, influencing their educational goals. Over 55 of these students have gone on to college with academic and athletic scholarships, 5 of whom received their scholarship awards last spring. Many more have gone on to universities with grants and the financial support necessary to make their degree a reality. You can make this possible for a new group of middle and high school students today. I ask you to please continue partnering with us on this path, combatting one of the greatest challenges in our area.

Your generous contribution to this programming pipeline will change the future for youth in El Paso.
