2011 Charity Recipients

The Jim Mora Count On Me Family Foundation, created in October 2005, is a 501(c)3 organization which supports children in need (primarily in three target areas:  from low socio-economic backgrounds, mentally and physically challenged, and children at-risk) by affording them the opportunity to realize their potential and dreams, help create more stability in their lives, support advocacy for children, and support channels that allow children to have a voice.  The Foundation strives to lend support to children’s organizations through grants and increased community awareness, empowering organizations to help children improve their lives by building and instilling confidence, encouraging health and wellness, fostering learning opportunities, and using the sport of football as a springboard to talk about life and life lessons.  Since 2005, the Foundation has raised over $1 million to help support children’s organizations in need.   For more information, please visit www.countonmefoundation.org.
