Home of Champions is a 501(c)3 on a mission to identify future leaders among foster care youth,and to empower them to reach their leadership and creative potential.

Home of Champions is a challenging, supportive home base where youth will have access to opportunities, resources and mentoring, gain the knowledge to live an active, consistent and sustained life style and develop the attitude necessary to become the responsible leaders, change makers and entrepreneurs of tomorrow.

The property is the former home and training facility of heavyweight boxing world champion Floyd Patterson. He built a professional boxing ring and facility that served as a training camp for two undisputed world heavy weight champions – Muhammad Ali and Ingemar Johansson as well as Patterson’s son, Tracy Harris Patterson who became a 2nd generation boxing champion.We will continue this legacy. The boxing and training facility will be converted into the Home of Champions Community Center. This will house leadership, holistic health, and creative arts seminars.
