Rough Hands Scholarship Fund

Not everyone has the financial means to train BJJ, but that shouldn’t be a barrier to experiencing its benefits. Donations ensure that individuals facing hardships—whether financial struggles, personal challenges, or difficult life circumstances—can still train and grow through the art of Jiu-Jitsu.

BJJ isn’t just about physical skill—it’s about camaraderie, discipline, and mutual respect. By contributing to the scholarship fund, donors help create a more inclusive training environment where anyone, regardless of financial background, can be part of the BJJ family.

Jiu-Jitsu teaches resilience, problem-solving, confidence, and perseverance. Many people who receive scholarships discover newfound strength, overcome personal obstacles, and gain a support system that extends far beyond the mats.

The people who benefit from scholarships often become strong role models in the academy and beyond. Many will go on to mentor others, volunteer, and give back to the community that helped them. A donation today can create ripple effects for years to come.

Training BJJ offers mental clarity, stress relief, and improved physical health. Providing access to training means giving individuals the tools to become healthier, more focused, and more motivated in all areas of life.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu thrives when its core values—inclusivity, respect, and support—are upheld. Ensuring that anyone, regardless of financial status, can train reinforces the idea that BJJ is for everyone.
