Mission Statement

Founded to empower the next generation of athletes, the Jason B. Jones Foundation provides scholarships to support their pursuit of excellence at the collegiate, professional, and Olympic level

We invest in athletes at pivotal stages of their volleyball journey, whether they are preparing for collegiate competition, pursuing professional play, or striving to represent their country at the Olympic level. Our scholarships are designed to not only ease financial pressure but also serve as a vote of confidence in each athlete’s commitment to excellence.

While performance is important, the foundation also values leadership, discipline, teamwork, and community involvement. Recipients of our scholarships represent more than athletic promise, they embody the values that volleyball instills: resilience, integrity, and respect for the game and those who play it.

Supporting the Game at the Highest Level

The Jason B. Jones Foundation proudly supports professional beach volleyball athletes who represent excellence, dedication, and the future of the sport. Through sponsorship, resources, and guidance, we help our athletes focus on competing at the highest level while building sustainable professional careers. Our commitment goes beyond performance, investing in growth, leadership, and the impact these athletes have on inspiring the next generation on and off the sand.

Our athletes have won World Championships, National Championships, Olympic Medals, AVP Tour Championships, and more. We are proud to support our JBJ Pro Athletes.

By investing at the collegiate level, we aim to strengthen the pathway between youth and professional volleyball, ensuring athletes are supported not only in their performance, but in their growth as leaders on and off the court.

Education That Empowers Every Step of the Journey

The Jason B. Jones Foundation is committed to providing education and guidance for players, coaches, and parents as they navigate the complexities of youth, collegiate, and professional volleyball.

By creating access to reliable information and experienced mentorship, the foundation empowers families and athletes to make informed decisions, avoid common pitfalls, and confidently move forward at every stage of their volleyball journey.
