We received a letter from former President Bill Clinton extending his best wishes for our foundation’s success. President Clinton played basketball with Arthur in Arkansas and stated on national television that "Arthur Agee Is a wonderful inspiration and role model to countless Americans.”
The foundation started with one program, The Hoop Dreams Curriculum” designed for 6th, 7th, 8th grade children. The first Curriculum was developed by Paul Cunningham a youth probation officer in Tucson, AZ. For the past six years we have help guide the youth of Tucson away from the youth correctional facility.
Since the inception of the foundation. Our goal has been to give back to our community. The same community that nurtured the Hoop Dream of Arthur Agee Jr.
One of the Foundation's projects is to restore the run-down playground where Arthur was first discovered and considered for the Hoop Dreams documentary. on is a pet project of the foundations goals. Having been approved to go ahead with the fundraising activities to support the playground renovation.
We are very excited about the
challenge that lay ahead.

"Dreams with a plan"
What is a Hoop Dream?
Everyone has "mind movies " in their head. They are your dreams.and visions. Hoop Dreams are your "personal mind movies" about sports, basketball, a job, a career, going to college, anything you truly think you want to achieve in life.Dreams need a "game" plan in order to become a reality... That what the Foundation is all about.

About Arthur Agee JR. Role Model Foundation:
The Arthur Agee JR. Role Model Foundation was founded by Arthur Agee the star of the movie Hoop Dreams and Hoop reality. The Foundation is a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to building "Life Skill Tools to make dreams become a reality.”
Who we work with
The AAJRMF works with students, athletes, teachers, coaches, parents, schools and organizations by teaching basic motivation and life skills to deal life challenges children face during formative years.
The Foundation reaches out to the community with a “dreams to reality message" that combines "mind-movies" with life skills to help them become real. The Foundation workshops provide children with tools to stay in school and maintain “Control if Their Own Destiny.”
Tools to Grow
Every child needs the tools to respond to life’s challenges and help to teach problem solving.
The foundation is based on the premise that given encouragement, motivation and “life skill tools" the children can build self-confidence to turn their dreams into reality and achieve personal growth.
Having good life skills increases the likelihood that they will better meet peer pressure and challenges of l alcohol, drugs, tobacco, bullies, violence and gangs.
Our goal is to provide use the “Positive Life Skills development Curriculum” to overcome negative life styles.
We believe the influence from positive role models, high self-esteem, founded confidence are the tools to children need to make their dreams... a reality. Help build, "life successes."
The Foundation seeks the support of positive role models to share their stories of how another role model helped guide them. We believe sharing those stories is important and that everyone can make a difference in a child’s life.
