Sir Richard Branson’s Necker Cup

The Necker Cup is a spirited pro-am tournament that brings together tennis legends, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, artists and friends from all over the world.

We want to thank the National Tennis foundation and Richard Branson for letting us be part of this extraordinary event. The event is an extremely special prize that our young adults seek to earn throughout the year that allows them to dive deeper into their passions, develop entrepreneurial skills, and showcase their athletic ability, all while nurturing and sharing their mastery in emotional and mental health.

#NotAlone Dinner Series

Thanks to support from Dr. George Rapier III and Villa Bibbiani, the dinner series is an extension of the #NotAloneChallenge. Through this dinner series, we are helping unite passionate individuals who share a love for extraordinary food, mental health, music and travel.

The goal of the #NotAlone Dinner Series is to bring education, advocacy and awareness about the importance of mental health to those in leadership positions who can help make a difference. Dinners include high-profile guests in exclusive locations, with performances from major artists.

2024’s dinners took place in Las Vegas, Miami, Florence (Italy), New York, and Aspen. Performers included Grammy-winning artists, such as Sting, Andrea Bocelli, Jewel, Rachel Platten, Luis Fonsi, Andy Grammer, and JP Saxe.

ForeLove

Two of the world’s greatest tennis players, Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz, competed against each other in The Netflix Slam, an exhibition match at the Michelob Ultra Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort.

In partnership with TEAM BRYAN, our alumni, youth, and staff played a part in bringing the event to life.

Steve Wozniak’s 70th Birthday

Steve Wozniak (co-founder of Apple) donated his 70th Birthday to our organization! Foundation youth organized a virtual surprise party for him, advised by his lovely wife, Janet. Instead of presents for his birthday, Janet gifted him with the thing he loves most: Helping others. The event was a huge success with over 50,000 viewers, several national news articles, and raised over $300,000 for our foundation.

We are a non-profit IRS 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
