Through tennis, academic enrichment, character development and healthy living, AK provides the necessary support to promote holistic growth preparing under-resourced youth for long-term success.

​

Money is the biggest driver of early participation. That is why Advantage Kids community and afterschool programs are offered at free or low cost to the participants ensuring that youth K-12 around the state is served.

 

AK's life skills are central to building the characters of children in New Hampshire.

Sport has the power to provide a universal framework for learning character strengths, and contributes to the development of social, emotional and character development...the soft skills needed to grow into thoughtful, ethical, and moral adults.
