FRANKIE WILLIAMS FOUNDATION

Welcome to the Frankie Williams Foundation

The Frankie Williams Foundation (FWF) a non for profit organization, sponsors and showcase elite high school basketball players through a prestigious CYP high school basketball tournament and the annual Frankie Williams Charity Classic. 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 bring the youth, adults and communites together in the nuture of our student athletes through sports. 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. In order to encourage qualification for academic scholorship, each student athlete 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 and give advice and help with college recruitment as requested. 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.
