Guiding Gloves: Coaching with Heart
Jass Boxing: Empowering Lives Through Mentorship and Movement
Jass Boxing is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has proudly trained, coached, and mentored boxers for over two decades. Founded on the belief that boxing is more than a sport, we use it as a transformative tool to teach discipline, resilience, and personal growth. Since earning nonprofit status in 2009, we’ve remained committed to making boxing accessible to all—regardless of background or income.
💙 Our Mission
We are deeply committed to providing a safe, judgment-free environment where at-risk and underserved youth and young adults feel seen, supported, and empowered. Our space is built on trust, respect, and unconditional acceptance—because every young person deserves the chance to heal, grow, and thrive without fear of stigma or shame.
🧠 What We Teach
Through our programs, we nurture essential life skills that help youth build confidence and character. We promote:
- Respect for self and others
- Commitment to personal goals
- Teamwork and accountability
- Emotional regulation and self-esteem
These values are woven into every interaction, helping young people develop the tools they need to succeed in life.
🥊 Why Boxing?
Boxing provides a powerful outlet for emotional expression and discipline. It instills:
- Physical and mental resilience
- Respect and focus
- Confidence and self-belief
It’s not just about technique—it’s about transformation.
🤝 The Power of Mentorship
Mentorship is at the heart of our program. Our experienced coaches are more than trainers—they’re role models who guide youth in both boxing and life. They embody discipline, integrity, and perseverance, offering consistent support and encouragement. These relationships foster trust, accountability, and a sense of purpose that extends far beyond the ring.
🔐 Safety and Integrity
We take safety seriously. Every coach and trainer is:
- Thoroughly background checked
- Certified through Safe Sport annually
- Recertified every two years
When participants step into our gym, they know they’re in trusted hands.
💪 What Sets Us Apart
We are entirely volunteer-run. Every coach, mentor, and staff member donates their time and expertise because they believe in the power of boxing to transform lives. This means every ounce of support goes directly into the program—fueling growth, deepening impact, and expanding access.
