Their Story
In 2013, Greg Ford challenged Kevin Watson, a young aspiring Track and Field coach, former student-athlete and working professional. Greg wanted Kevin to make a difference in the lives of the student-athletes that he trains. He not only called Kevin to help athletes in sport but assist the athletes outside of the sport. After some consideration, Kevin became inspired to support student-athletes in and out of their respective sports. As a result, they created an organization that addressing the needs of student-athletes. These areas are focused on while they are in school in addition to after they finish participating in their respective sports.

Today, Focus Our Future, Inc. exists with programs such as Focus Our Future (r) Program and Future Flyers.
Focus Our Future has an extremely robust digital footprint, utilizing their website and social media to maximize their online presence.

The organization was also featured in a the Richmond Free Press, leading to an acknowledgement from Jennifer McClellan, a member of the Senate of Virginia 9th District for their community leadership.
In addition to their digital presence, Focus Our Future also utilizes the power of volunteers through recruitment from VolunteerMatch. Volunteers and interns are a great way to share an organization’s mission and further recruit without spending too much of the overall budget.
