WHO WE ARE
Squashforthekids is an initiative founded by junior squash players in the United States that makes squash more accessible to underprivileged squash players in Mexico. Collaborating with Felipe Barreto, former squash president of Mexico, we aim to create opportunities for underprivileged Mexican children to experience the joy of playing squash and support their passion for the sport through inclusive tournaments and events. We strive to empower these children and foster their love for the game by providing access to squash facilities, equipment, and coaching.

"Felipe's incredible story is one of resilience and dedication. Once a professional Mexican squash player and the President of the Mexican Squash Federation, corrupt figures unjustly removed him from his position in 2000. Undeterred, Felipe has devoted his life to assisting those in need within the squash community, using his own resources to support aspiring players and provide them with opportunities for a better education, particularly those seeking to come to the US."
