Craig James

Craig James is the founder of the Craig James Foundation, driven by a lifelong passion for empowering youth. Growing up in a family of educators, Craig learned early the value of mentorship, guidance, and community support. These roots shaped his vision for creating opportunities that inspire, educate, and uplift young people.

A former professional football player, Craig brings the discipline, teamwork, and leadership he learned on the field into his work with the Craig James Foundation. His mission is simple: to provide youth with the resources, programs, and encouragement they need to reach their full potential, both on and off the field.

Through the Craig James Foundation, Craig works to ensure that every child has access to positive role models, educational support, and safe spaces to grow. His dedication is fueled by the belief that investing in youth today builds stronger, more resilient communities tomorrow.
