Fund the Future

What if there was a place in the heart of Harlem where kids could get in shape, boost their self esteem, improve their grades, and have fun doing it?

There is.

What if an organization existed that brought together adults of different nationalities, races and religions in activities that promote mutual respect, physical fitness, perseverance and teamwork?

It does.

What if these two places were one?

They are.

Founded by a world class taekwondo champion, One World Taekwondo Foundation promotes strength and agility, both physical and mental, self confidence and respect for others through its martial arts school, Harlem Tae Kwon Do.
