Secret Pocket Scholarships
A Secret Pocket Scholarship allows a student to participate and enjoy the experience of Break the Barriers.
Several hundred students come through Break the Barriers’ doors every day, eager to master their skills and share in the excitement of accomplishments achieved by others. However, we often have students who must put their victory on HOLD for financial reasons.
Outreach Details
Applications for a Secret Pocket Scholarship are available at Break the Barriers office. *Please bring proof of income (ex. First page of most recent tax return).

Upcoming Events
I can’t explain how thankful I am for all of my sponsors. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without you. I also want to say a special thanks to all the coaches, you guys are great! I hope you never change because when I was there, everything was perfect – Break the Barriers is the Best!
