3T Foundation Teams Up with CMS Athletics to Empower Students

We are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking partnership between the 3T Foundation and CMS Athletics! This collaboration is set to transform the lives of students across the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS) by creating unparalleled opportunities for personal and athletic growth. Steve Wilks was most recently the keynote speaker for the 2nd Annual CMS SAAC All Star GALA and will be one of the founding charter members for our CMS Athletics Hall of Fame. 

Under the visionary leadership of Coach Steve Wilks, a proud Charlotte native and CEO of the 3T Foundation, this partnership will focus on the foundation’s core pillars: Teach, Train, Task. These principles are designed to equip our young athletes with the skills, knowledge, and discipline they need to succeed both on and off the field.

  • Teach: Empowering students with essential life skills and education to pave the way for their future success.
  • Train: Providing top-tier athletic training that builds not only physical strength but also mental resilience.
  • Task: Challenging students to apply what they’ve learned and trained for in real-world situations, preparing them for life’s many challenges.

This exciting partnership is more than just a collaboration; it’s a commitment to shaping the future leaders of our community. By working together, 3T Foundation and CMS Athletics are dedicated to unlocking the full potential of every student-athlete, fostering a spirit of excellence, and creating lasting impacts that will resonate for years to come.

Join us on this incredible journey as we take CMS Athletics to new heights, guided by the passion and dedication of Coach Steve Wilks and the 3T Foundation. The future is bright, and we can’t wait to see what our students will achieve!
