The Rhodes Foundation
Encouraging today’s youth to reach for their dreams and providing young ambitious men and women with the tools to conquer adversity – these goals define the mission of The Kerry RHODES Foundation.
The Kerry RHODES Foundation was founded by NFL New York Jets star, Kerry Rhodes who recognized the importance of inspiring young minds to visualize goals, and the need to provide resources that enable young minds to pursue and attain these goals. Mr. Rhodes understands these goals are best achieved through well equipped educational facilities which provide their students with choices, opportunities and inspiration. For this reason, one of the primary missions of The Kerry RHODES Foundation is to provide high schools located in financially depressed areas with resources, equipment, programs and activities that will assist with the academic, athletic, and social development of their students. All students at that high school are benefitted, and all students are challenged to boldly dream.
Mr. Rhodes also understands the importance of recognizing and reaffirming the bold steps of those remarkable young men and women who dare to take their dreams even further. For this reason, the other primary mission of the Foundation is to provide financial assistance to these high schools to enable them to furnish scholarships to certain talented young men and women for the continuation of their academic careers beyond high school.
