Advancing Social Impact Strategy:
Empowering Communities and Schools Through Sports Culture

At 5A Elite, we strongly believe in the transformative power of sports and sports culture. Our youth-driven social impact strategy aims to address issues of violence, disharmony and chaos in communities and schools where poverty and trauma exist.

The PeaceBuilder Institute for Social Impact Strategy

The PeaceBuilder Institute has a twofold goal of helping participants to first explore the "7 Dimensions of Wellness;" before designing and implementing social impact strategies within their schools and communities. 

​

Internal Peace: Through a thorough exploration of wellness areas, participants begin the journey of healing from generational and historical trauma, nurturing internal peace, and identifying the Social Determinants of Health-related issues most relevant to their context.

​

External Action: "Students are trained to design, test, and launch new initiatives within the '5 Impact Zones,' where they investigate, identify, and innovate. Our human-centered design framework converts complex issues and 'wicked problems' into strategies that connect research to practical solutions, shape new policies, programs, and practices, and develop campaigns or products aimed at improving lives and creating new opportunities."

We design sport-centered social impact  strategies ...

Addressing today’s critical social issues, such as violence, poverty, and educational disparities, demands a collaborative approach, as no single organization can solve these problems alone. Our Social Impact Labs bring together experts from academia, government, school districts, police departments, community organizations, healthcare, philanthropy, and the private sector to mentor students and collaborate on social impact initiatives. Our programs provide advanced leadership, design thinking education, social impact training, hands-on learning, and networking opportunities with industry professionals.
