#ChangeThroughSport Program
HERE AT THE THIELEN FOUNDATION, WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF SPORT. THE POWER OF SPORT CAN CHANGE OUR SOCIETY BY SHOWCASING OUR DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITIES AND HOW WE CAN COME TOGETHER AS A TEAM TO ACHIEVE A GREATER GOAL. WE ALSO BELIEVE THE ZIP CODE YOU ARE BORN IN SHOULD NOT DETERMINE YOUR FUTURE POTENTIAL WHICH IS WHY WE DEVELOPED THE #CHANGETHRUSPORT CAMPAIGN. THE #CHANGETHRUSPORT PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPED IN 2020 TO STAND IN THE GAP FOR UNDERSERVED YOUTH IN THE UPPER MIDWEST. THE THIELEN FOUNDATION BOLDLY PUTS ITS PASSION INTO ACTION BY PROVIDING FINANCIAL SUPPORT, MUCH NEEDED SPORTS EQUIPMENT AND APPAREL, ALONG WITH HOPE AND INSPIRATION FOR YOUTH TO DREAM BIG AND ATTAIN THEIR GOALS ON AND OFF THE PLAYING FIELD AND SET THEM UP FOR SUCCESS IN LIFE. IN 2024, THIELEN FOUNDATION TOOK ON TWO NEW PARTNER HIGH SCHOOLS, ONE IN ST. PAUL, MN (COMO HS) AND ONE IN CHARLOTTE, NC (MALLARD CREEK HS) -- AND DID A COMPLETE MAKEOVER OF THEIR WEIGHT ROOMS AND ADDED THEIR SCHOOLS TO OUR LEGACY PROGRAM OF GIVING $50,000 IN 5 - $1,000 STUDENT ATHLETES SCHOLARSHIPS ANNUALLY, OVER THE NEXT 10 YEARS.
