The Smiles Through Sports Foundation was created by API and has the mission of providing unparalleled sports experiences for children with special needs. Still in its infancy, STSF will work with its clients and other high-profile athletes and celebrities to use sports and sports-related events to provide memories that will last a lifetime.

The event also has a fundraising ticket-sales program that is available to any non-profit group interested in participating. Please contact API for more information.
