AFE’s Tickets for Tomorrow Mentorship Program is an incentive driven program which collaborates with teachers & program administrators in San Diego & North Counties creating educational programs to track improved academics & citizenship within the school & organizations. AFE rewards children for achieving academic and citizenship goals set by their teachers.
Since 1996 AFE has created programs with local professional athletes to partner with local businesses and corporations to provide opportunities for more than 15,000 youth & families to attend professional sporting and recreational events. These events include: Chargers & Padres home game tickets, concerts, trips to the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Wild Animal Park, Disneyland, SeaWorld and more.
In 2007 AFE through Chargers Players Kassim Osgood, (80), Luis Castillo (20), Mike Scifres (10) & Greg Camarillo (10) donated 120 total tickets to schools & organizations that provide services to low-income families & at-risk youth to all 10 Chargers home games.

AFE treated 20 5th and 6th grade students to a day at SeaWorld in San Diego. The children, who were selected for achievement in academics and citizenship, enjoyed participating in all that Sea World has to offer, including a very special visit with Shamu!® Two of the children were chosen to get “up close and personal” with the killer whale…a memory that will undoubtedly last a lifetime! Special and unique experiences, like these at Sea World, are examples of the many rewards AFE provides through Tickets for Tomorrow.
At Athletes for Education, we are very excited about our “Tickets for Tomorrow” campaign, which partners local businesses and corporations such as Pepsi Bottling Group, Wal*Mart and SBC with AFE in providing tickets to local sporting events for kids in our mentorship program.
Over the past 8 years, AFE has taken over 1800 kids to various professional sporting and recreational events, concerts and trips to our world famous Zoo and Sea World. To join AFE’s Ticket’s for Tomorrow mentorship campaign please CONTACT US
