The MaliVai Washington Youth Foundation is proud to be selected as one of ten inaugural USTA Foundation Community Impact Hubs—an exciting national initiative designed to expand access to tennis and opportunity in under-resourced communities.

Launched by the USTA Foundation, the Community Impact Hub initiative invests in local organizations like MWYF to deepen and scale programs that combine tennis, education, and life skills development. Through this effort, we are strengthening our ability to serve Jacksonville youth and families with expanded programming, enhanced facilities, and increased access to trained coaches and mentors. Together, these hubs are projected to reach more than 630,000 young people nationwide, bringing tennis and its lifelong benefits directly into neighborhoods, schools, and community spaces.

At MWYF, this designation affirms our longstanding commitment to using tennis as a vehicle for academic achievement, character development, and community connection. As a Community Impact Hub, we are not only growing the game—we are helping build stronger futures for the young people we serve.
