Like everything else this year, EOBA's season of giving will look very different. Instead of asking our community to support our programs and services, we are asking that you join us in giving our families the gift of HOPE for the holidays.
Every single EOBA family has been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic in one way or another; with many experiencing job loss and/or a substantial reduction in income. We want to ensure that December is a month of joy and relief for our families, and it is our hope you will help us make this happen!
Our Mission:
Wellness.
noun | well·ness | \ ˈwel-nəs \
-
the quality or state of being healthy in body and mind, especially as the result of deliberate effort.
Using boxing as a model of discipline, courage, and perseverance, EOBA provides high-quality programming and services that promote mental and physical wellness, academic achievement, and build vital life skills. We create space for youth to practice, hone, and internalize the tools and attitudes needed to be exemplars of wellbeing for their peers, families, and communities.

“Last year, one of my students started showing up at school with no homework; I was afraid I was seeing the start of a negative cycle. But this year was different. My student gets space, time, and real help at EOBA completing his homework. I also know that because of EOBA, his older brother doesn't have to babysit his younger brothers after school."
