The NSCA Foundation at Work

Maddie (Madeline) Armstrong received an NSCA Foundation High School scholarship. Today, she is finishing her freshman year at East Stroudsburg University, an NSCA Education Recognition Program school. As an Exercise Science major, Maddie has maintained a 3.846 GPA and is the only freshman to participate in observing the school's Sports Science Institute. She writes:  

“I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone again for their faith in me and for awarding me the High School scholarship. I am so proud to have chosen East Stroudsburg University and I am excited about all that I've been able to learn during my freshman year. The scholarship has made a significant difference in my education expenses and I wanted to let everyone know I've made the most of my freshman year and will continue to do so in the years ahead.”

Continuing the Legacy

The NSCA Foundation would not exist if not for the generous contributions of the NSCA community. While the Foundation is determined to assist as many applicants as possible, every year the list of exceptional applicants grows longer and we can not fund everyone.

We hope that today, driven by your passion, you will partner with us and consider shaping the future of strength and conditioning through a financial gift of support. Every gift, regardless the size goes directly to supporting the Foundation programs, not overhead costs.

Those wishing to make a donation of $200 or more will join our Partners of Excellence Program. 

Please consider making a donation to students like Maddie—your gift represents an investment in the next generation of strength and conditioning leaders.
