Welcome to the Frankie Williams Foundation The Frankie Williams Foundation (FWF) a non
for profit organization, supports Team Frenji grassroots youth basketball development academy. The Frankie Williams
Foundation was founded in the year of 2007, in the honor of the late Frankie (Francis) Williams who passed away in June of
2006. He was a positive role model, mentor, and coach to youth in Greenburgh, New York and surrounding communities.
Overall, the FWF was established to teach the fundamental skills and overall aspects of the game of basketball. Additionally,
while the participants are in high school and college, the academy will offer practical skills in preparation for life beyond
basketball . The major key to this program is fostering life skills which will become the building
blocks to adult success. It is the hope that the program participants continue to achieve their personal goals in academics
and sports while becoming productive citizens and encouraging them to give back to their local communities. The Frankie Williams Foundation seeks to encourage diversity by servicing youth of all ages, ethnicities and economic
status, comprised of residents of Greenburgh, White Plains and surrounding areas within Westchester County. All academy
participants will travel from state to state competing in elite basketball tournaments for high school and college recognition.
In order to encourage qualification for academic scholorship, each member will be provided with the NCAA rules and regulation.
With the increase in the number of Athletes competing for scholorships, the academy will be the catalyst to provide members
the exposure needed. We feel it is vital that our youth have an opportunity to display their talents as it will be provided
by the Frankie Williams Foundation. Our efforts include but will not be limited to: promoting charity events,
grant writing and seeking corporate donations. Financial
contributions are welcomed and should be made payable to "The Frankie Williams Foundation" and mailed to Frenji
