AQUAS - Providing Support for Financially Underprivileged Athletic ScholarsJohn W. Adams
AQUAS is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to identify, sponsor and mentor underprivileged high school scholar-athletes to secure athletic and/or academic scholarships so they can achieve a college education. With the help of private donors, AQUAS, in partnership with College Promoters USA, funds a professional video and marketing effort to showcase our candidate’s athletic capability. The video and an academic/athletic resume are distributed to college coaches throughout the nation. In addition, AQUAS volunteers follow up by phone with the coaches and counselors. AQUAS provides counseling for the students in responding to various college inquiries/offers and in the selection of a good match for them. Since its inception in 2009, AQUAS has helped 30 students receive more than $5,000,000 in scholarship funding – all for just $2,500 per student. That’s right, a donation of just $2,500 per student enables AQUAS to successfully promote an underprivileged athletic student and help them secure scholarships so they can achieve a college education – one they more than likely would not otherwise achieve. 100% of our donations are used directly towards assisting in the scholarship process as AQUAS is run and managed entirely by volunteers.
