15LOVE

15LOVE is a non-profit organization based in Albany, New York, dedicated to positively impacting youth in the Capital Region. The organization is a small business, employing four staff members. 15LOVE utilizes tennis as a platform to deliver a comprehensive program focused on the holistic development of children. Their mission centers on reaching out to youth, particularly those in underserved inner-city communities, emphasizing education, good health, positive values, multicultural understanding, sportsmanship, family support, and community involvement. Founded over two decades ago with the support of tennis legend Arthur Ashe, 15LOVE distinguishes itself from recreational tennis programs by focusing on prevention and the overall well-being of the child. They operate year-round throughout the Capital Region, with a particular emphasis on Albany, Troy, Schenectady, and Rensselaer.
