Winning With Character is a non-profit organization providing character, ethics, and leadership training to high school and college athletic programs.

The purpose of our program is to improve moral reasoning and social values among male and female students athletes. Our four year program is designed to:

• challenge athletes to reach their full potential in the classroom,
  on the field, and in society;
• provide understanding, reasoning, and application or moral and
  ethical principles; and
• change students values and thinking (year 1), and behavior (years 2-4).

Originally created for the University of Georgia football players, and after three years of measured success, the program is being implemented across men’s and women’s sports at UGA, and other high schools and colleges around the country.

Our program operates based on financial support provided by license fees by our member schools, and gifts and contributions from foundations, corporations, and individual donors.
