Arrington Gavin, Founder and CEO of The Rugged Evolution Foundation started the 501 © (3) non-profit in 2019 to make an impact on the lives of our youth in Hampton Roads. He recognized that improving the lives of others often occurs at the local level. The mission is to serve the youth community with time, talents and resources. The foundation volunteers and partners with local churches, organizations and businesses to fulfill this mission. Every year various events and fundraisers are held to collect donations and raise funds for the main initiative, which is the annual Back to School Giveaway in August. This event provides educational resources, new backpacks, school supplies, shoes, student ID’s and free haircuts for grade levels K-12 throughout Hampton Roads, VA. Most importantly, we make sure our youth know how much they matter in our community. To date the foundation has served over 3,000 families in the cities. Our future goals are to offer mentorships for male adolescents and book scholarships for college students. Thank you for your support today and thank you in advance for your continued support.

Please continue to help The Rugged Evolution Foundation pave the way for tomorrow’s leaders through our contributions today.
