Now they'll get the extra attention, tutoring, and computer support they need to succeed in school and throughout their lives," said Deborah Larkin, Executive Director USTA Serves.

USTA Serves
USTA Serves is a not-for-profit entity dedicated to enhancing the lives of at-risk children and individuals with disabilities through the integration of tennis and education. People from all cultural and ethnic backgrounds are beneficiaries of USTA Serves, which supports organizations that use tennis as a vehicle to help at-risk children finish high school and qualify for college scholarships.

"USTA Serves is a great organization that's making a difference in the lives of young people around the country," said Esurance CEO Gary Tolman. "Giving back to the community is a cornerstone of Esurance's philosophy, and our work with USTA Serves and the Bryan Brothers continues our tradition of being a long-time supporter of charity in tennis."

East Palo Alto Tennis and Tutoring
East Palo Alto Tennis and Tutoring (EPATT) has made a difference for more than 1,500 at-risk students over the past 25 years. Using a unique mix of academic tutoring and tennis instruction, EPATT gives students the strong academic, athletic, and social skills they need to become successful adults in their community. Through EPATT, neighbors, teachers, coaches, and mentors are making a lasting impact on kids in need.

Kids and Police Tennis Association
