IN THE HEART OF AN ATHLETE

Sponsors and donors make it possible for us to host events and provide educational materials and funding for cardiovascular testing. Become a sponsor today to help prevent the loss of another child from a heart condition that can easily be diagnosis and treated.

THE DENNIS PRICE JR. SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Our goal is to provide an opportunity for students of color to further their education with financial assistance to offset the cost of attending college.

DJ'S CARE CLOSET

DJ’s Care Closet is a program under the Heart 2 Heart initiative. It was created to meet the needs of grade-school students and their families in Memphis, TN, and surrounding areas.

HEART 2 HEART

Heart 2 Heart initiative creates programs and host events to provide essential needs and mentorship to youth and their families in disadvantaged communities. Programs under this initiative make it possible to connect with sponsors and donors who have a heart for children and families in need.

Men of Clay

Isaiah 64:8

​

Men of Clay (MOC) is a mentoring program under the Heart 2 Heart initiative that focuses on at-risk youth in our community. Dennis Price Sr., DJ's father, helped to mold him into a great young man that had a promising future ahead of him. Through this program many young men will get to experience the same love and dedication that was given to DJ.
