Move Your Feet Tennis Foundation Joins USTA NJTL! Let’s Celebrate 3 Years of Community Impact

Hi friends and supporters,

We’re thrilled to share some major news: Move Your Feet Tennis Foundation (MYFTF) is turning 3 this October—and we have even more reason to celebrate this year.

Big Milestone: We’re Now a USTA Foundation NJTL Chapter!

We’re proud to announce that MYFTF has officially become a chapter of the USTA Foundation’s National Junior Tennis & Learning (NJTL) program—a national network focused on providing tennis and education programs to under-resourced youth across the country.

Becoming part of the NJTL family means more resources, more support, and more impact as we continue our mission to make tennis accessible and empowering for all kids—regardless of background or income.

Helping Families Affected by the Eaton Fire

With the community’s support, we’ve already:

Awarded summer camp scholarships to kids affected by the Eaton Fire.
Planned a new 10-week tennis training series, aiming to serve 100+ youth this year.

But we can’t do this alone—we need your help to keep going.
