The Project Torch Foundation believes that small actions can amount to big results, especially if taken up on a grand scale.
Project Torch, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, supports some of the most promising athletes in the sport of wrestling. This strengthens the sport at the national level, and benefits American athletes in national and international competition.
We provide financial assistance, top-quality facilities, mentorship, and outstanding coaches to current national-caliber and world-class athletes. The same resources are offered to developing athletes and youth with financial need who demonstrate the potential to compete and succeed on the national and world stage.
