The Andre Agassi FoundationSM is dedicated to transforming U.S. public education for underserved youth. The Foundation drives reform by engaging in practice, policy and partnerships that provide quality education and enrichment opportunities.
Since 1944, the YMCA of Southern Nevada has provided children, adults, seniors and families of all backgrounds and economic levels with recreational programs designed to develop a healthy spirit, mind and body. The YMCA currently serves more than 20,000 people a year and opens programs to all interested participants regardless of their ability to pay.
The Andre Agassi Foundation supported the YMCA’s “Building A Stronger Tomorrow” campaign to renovate the YMCA’s 23-year-old Heinrich facility in 2005. Changes included an electrical system upgrade, the remodeling of the wellness center and gymnasium, and the construction of a new playground and outdoor aquatic center. Together, our goal is for these efforts to build strong kids, strong families and strong communities.
