Bring fencing — and what it teaches — to every kid who wants it.
Fencing in the Schools is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that brings the sport — and what it teaches about focus, confidence, and going for the gold — to K–12 students who would never otherwise see a foil.
Partner school.
A sport built for every kid in the room.
