The United States Tennis Association Foundation has joined Frances Tiafoe to launch The Frances Tiafoe Fund, with focused support on the National Junior Tennis and Learning network.

As someone who grew up in the NJTL network, the mission of the USTA Foundation is personal to Tiafoe and pivotal to his tennis journey. He started playing the game at age four at the Junior Tennis Champions Center in Maryland, a NJTL chapter where his father served as the head of maintenance after immigrating from Sierra Leone in 1996.

“I’m so excited for this opportunity to work with the USTA Foundation and inspire kids who come from my hometown and beyond. One of my priorities has always been to show kids that dreams can come true and that success is in everyone—and this Fund is just one step further toward that goal.” – Frances Tiafoe

The VOICEINSPORT Foundation has a mission to advocate for girls and women in sport through research, education, and advocacy.

Our partnership with the VOICEINSPORT Foundation started in 2022, and with the help of our newest athlete, Sophia Smith, we’re continuing our support into 2023. As we look forward to women’s sports being on the world stage during the Women’s World Cup this year, now is the time to help drive change in women’s sport equality on a global scale.

The VOICEINSPORT Foundation believes the more opportunities and support girls have in sport, the stronger and more powerful they’ll be in all aspects of their lives.

Established in 2020, the VOICEINSPORT Foundation is dedicated to closing the opportunity gap in sports as well as supporting women at all critical developmental moments of their sports journey such as breast development, menstruation, and psychological development.

CLIF® is proud to support the VOICEINSPORT Foundation in hosting in-person and virtual Title IX trainings across the US to help girls and women understand their rights under the landmark law guaranteeing equal access to sport for girls. Additionally, CLIF® will support in establishing the VOICEINSPORT Foundation chapters on state college campuses across the country for women and girl student athletes to access educational resources, gain leadership training, and network with women leaders in their area.
