  • THE NICHOLLS 'OHANA

    "The Underdog Foundation helped our family find strength and grounding by allowing us to continue training with Dickson Performance. Their generous donation gave us a sense of normalcy after our Lahaina community suffered a devastating loss."

  • THE HARGIS 'OHANA

    "The Underdog Foundation has been a transformative force for my family...My oldest daughter has received multiple volleyball scholarship offers, and we’re still in the process of making a choice because more opportunities are coming in, all thanks to the Underdog Foundation."

  • THE KUKAHIKO-KAEHUAEA 'OHANA

    "My kids grew in so many ways, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. Their athleticism improved drastically, but more importantly, their confidence and work ethic soared."
