The Sidekick Foundation is a nonprofit charity providing martial arts scholarships through martial arts schools to at-risk youths, people with disabilities, the elderly and others. Your local martial arts school may be able to offer you a martial arts scholarship at their school with our help.

Over 50 psychological and medical studies done over the past 35 years show that martial arts training can improve mental, physical and spiritual health. In just a few short years we have grown to over 100 chapters throughout the U.S.  We, along with our martial arts studio partners provide scholarships for individ uals to take martial arts lessons thus building their mental, physical or spiritual strength to live a healthier, more value-oriented life. For at-risk children, special needspeople and the elderly this training can very substantially improve their quality of life for the rest of their lives.

"I am so grateful we found Sidekick. I has kept several students in class when parents were too embarrassed to tell us of money problems. Not only are we able to contribute in a positive manner to our community, but we can also insure that our school will stay in business to continue our contributions!"
