Current Programs
Education Through Athletics
Agape Tennis Foundation is pleased to announce its partnership with E.T.A: Education Through Athletics. E.T.A. strives to change the community, one student at a time. E.T.A. utilizes athletics to inspire with an active and lifelong yearning for learning, fostering a strong work ethic, helping youth build their self-confidence through continuous achievement, and teaching valuable life skills.
Through our partnership, we will be able to provide E.T.A. access to our recently renovated tennis courts, equipment, and more at our Washington Park Racquet Center. We will also provide an indoor space to help with the educational experience, cooking classes, and more. We cannot wait to see the impact that E.T.A. can have on developing our nation’s youth and inspiring each one of them to reach their highest potential.

Our purpose is to empower people to reach their potential and live happier and healthier lives by fully using the gifts they have been given. It is to help others live the way they want to live in the way they want to live it. Fulfilled and happy people make the world a much better place. We do this through tennis, sometimes directly and sometimes indirectly- but always intentionally.
