Since 1992, the mission of the USTA/Midwest Tennis & Education Foundation has been to “develop the life skills of youth through tennis and education.” In 2017, the Foundation awarded more than $100,000 in grants to local community programs and individual junior tennis players of all abilities and scholarships to high school seniors. Now, our mission has expanded to include disabled veterans and adults with physical and mental challenges participating in adaptive and wheelchair tennis programs. Your support is vital to continue to impact lives through tennis! Please help the USTA/Midwest Tennis & Education Foundation continue to change lives in 2018.
