Everybody Plays Foundation

Everybody Plays Foundation We are dedicated to providing positive role models to at risk youth. We believe extra curricular activities are essential to youth development.

We believe play is essential to a happy, healthy life. The Everybody Plays Foundation offers recreational education to elementary and secondary students through extracurricular or school-based programs. More than education, Everybody Plays is also a lesson in teamwork, participation, commitment, and self-reliance. When a child learns to make his own fishing rod, he's happy. But when he catches his

first trout on it, he becomes hooked on that feeling of success - doing it himself and making it happen. Everybody Plays is committed to providing positive fitness role models who promote a healthy lifestyle and outdoor recreation of all kinds. We teach kayaking, archery, paddleboarding, track, and even how to hike and set up a camp in the great outdoors. When we teach an activity, we teach everything about it. How to:

care for your equipment or make it yourself
decide the best weather for the activity
find a good place to go
make sure you are safe and secure while doing it
Your support of Everybody Plays will help ensure our ability to serve more kids with great mentors teaching them how to just play. Their latest project joins them with Erin Sullivan, a local Outdoor Guru and long term Director of Outdoor Outreach Programming specializing in long term mentoring with at-risk youth through hands on outdoor experiences like hiking, paddling, and overnight primitive camping. The Outdoor Outreach Team also focuses on team building character development, and nature education. Another project of EP Sports joins the team with the Louisiana Marathon crew creating a Track Club. This project focuses on fitness and overall health through working out, running, short term and long term goals of training.
