Partner in Purpose

Standing With Student-Athletes, On and Off the Field

Locker Room to Legacy™ is more than a program — it’s a faith, family, and finish movement. Partner in Purpose is how schools, churches, businesses, and community leaders lock arms with Jerome D. Lewis to bring this framework to student-athletes across the country.

When you partner, you’re not just sponsoring an event. You’re helping young people connect who they belong to, why they’re here, and how to steward every opportunity — including NIL — with character and conviction.

Schools & Athletic Departments

Churches & Ministries

Families, Sponsors & Donors

Every partner plays a unique role in the Locker Room to Legacy ecosystem — but the mission stays the same: surrounding student-athletes with aligned voices at school, at home, and in the community.

This Year & Beyond

Ways to Align Across a School Year

Every calendar looks different. Here are simple ways partners align the framework with their season.

Pre-Season / Summer

Laying the Foundation

Introduce identity, faith, and legacy themes before the season ramps up — perfect for summer workouts, leadership groups, and early parent meetings.

In-Season

Walking Through Pressure

Integrate the 8-week sessions into your weekly rhythm — chapels, film, or lifts — and address decisions, adversity, and NIL noise in real time.

Post-Season / Off-Season

Processing & Sending

Help athletes reflect, process transitions, and prepare for the next quarter of life — new level, new school, or new opportunities.

Financial Partnership

Helping More Students Hear a Better Story

At this stage, financial partnership is handled personally and transparently — through direct communication, prayerful planning, and clear agreement on how your support will be used.

Team Support: Fund the 8-week journey for one team.
School / Club: Underwrite multiple teams or a department.
City / Region: Seed this work across a cluster of schools or ministries.
Project Support: Fund digital guides, videos, or 4Q resources.

Online giving is coming in a later build (Stripe + donation platform). For now, everything begins with a conversation.

Prayer Partner

Not every partner is called to give financially — but many are called to pray. You can request periodic updates to pray for student-athletes, families, and upcoming events.
