PowerUP Scholarship Fund, Inc. is a non-profit organization that provides scholarships for underprivileged and at-risk children to train in various forms of martial arts, with the aim of developing core values such as self-control, resilience, and respect through mentorship. The program leverages a scalable model by purchasing excess capacity from martial arts instructors, enabling one mentor to oversee large numbers of participants, which supports broad access to guidance and skill development for youth. Based in Atlanta, the organization focuses on mentoring disadvantaged youth and articulates a mission centered on access to mentorship and character formation. The company operates within the non-profit sector and has engaged leadership updates, such as appointing an executive director in 2021, with public activity including the launch of a storytelling initiative in 2017 to highlight impact.
