The Foot Locker Foundation is a charity that assists “phenomenal student-athletes in pursuing their aspirations of going and excelling at a two-year or four-year local college or four-year school.” The Foot Locker Foundation provides funding for the Foot Locker Scholar Athletes Program. Twenty deserving students are awarded $20,000 in scholarship money from Foot Locker annually. The scholarship program has been around for many years and was created to help talented and hard-working student-athletes who may need more financial means to attend college. Previous recipients of the Foot Locker Scholar Athlete awards have gone on to compete in Division I, Division II, and Division III athletics. They have also excelled in athletics after college, including Major League Soccer and the NFL.
