The Grassroots Change “StarMakers: Fit Bodies, Fit Minds” is a collaboration with KOP Mentoring Network, PHIT AMERICA and INACTIVE to create an engaging, enriching and innovative STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) afterschool program that fosters a holistic approach to student development by integrating physical fitness, literacy, and mental well-being. By embracing healthy lifestyles while nurturing our love for reading, we aim to inspire a lifelong love for learning and empower students to excel academically and as an overall human being.

 

“StarMakers: Fit Bodies, Fit Minds” program will empower school-age students in Delray Beach to thrive academically, physically, and emotionally. By combining literacy, fitness, and athlete mentorship, we can create a positive impact on their overall well-being.

​

Global football icon Ronaldo de Assis Moreira aka “Ronaldinho” will serve as an Ambassador through the StarMakers FUTSAL / Street Soccer project to encourage and inspire local youth to “Be Playful, Be Magic” and embrace healthy lifestyles while nurturing their love for reading.

​

Good mental health is critical to the well-being of our families, communities, schools, and businesses. Greater public awareness about utilizing Education Through Sport to promote positive physical and emotional wellbeing can change negative attitudes and behaviors. The Grassroots Change StarMakers FUTSAL / Street Soccer  pilot project commenced in September 2024.
