"Changing the neighborhood one kid at a time"

Neighborhood Athletics is a non-profit organization in Columbus, Ohio. That provides athletic and educational opportunities, to youth in underserved communities. We strive to provide a safe, encouraging environment where kids can learn, have fun and develop lifelong skills.

All our student Athlete families are low income and relatively isolated in, a situation exacerbated by cultural, language, and educational barriers on the part of many Somali Bantu families, which there is quite a large population on the westside of Columbus.

That is why we have made it our mission to take a holistic approach in our social services mission. Our vision is to advocate, empower and inspire youth and families in underserved communities.
