Who we are
The Team Armstead Foundation was founded by Terron Armstead in 2015 out of a desire to give back and uplift the community of Cahokia, IL. At a young age, Terron was fortunate enough to receive mentorship and guidance that have contributed to his success on and off the field. Historically, lack of access to mentorship, skills and resources impacts marginalized communities disproportionately. The Terron Armstead Foundation has worked to make a difference in the lives of the youth in St. Clair County by providing educational programs on financial wellness, business acumen, entrepreneurship and general life skills at the Team Armstead Community Center. The Team Armstead Community Center has become a beacon of hope for Cahokia heights and a safe place for learning and growth for its youth.
Our Mission
We seek to address the opportunity gap in St. Clair County, Miami and New Orleans, by providing youth with career readiness, entrepreneurial education and leadership opportunities. Through a culturally responsive curriculum, tutoring and differentiated mentorship, the Team Armsrtead Foundation will help prepare the next generation of leaders.
