The SELF 1st Foundation, spearheaded by global superstar Armando Christian Perez, also known as Pitbull or Mr. Worldwide, leverages his immense influence to empower the next generation through education. By partnering with the SLAM! Foundation and other 501(c)(3) organizations, SELF 1st aims to raise awareness and funding for educational initiatives nationwide. 

The SLAM! Foundation, established in 2015, supports a network of public charter schools focused on Sports Leadership Arts and Management (SLAM!), which currently operates 13 campuses across five states.

SELF 1st aspires to extend its reach beyond the SLAM! network, enhancing educational access and resources for minority and underserved populations across various levels of education. By working with diverse educational entities, SELF 1st aims to break down barriers and provide comprehensive support from elementary through college and trade school. 

Through these efforts, the foundation seeks to cultivate academic excellence, inspire young minds, and create a more equitable society. The ultimate goal is to ensure every individual, regardless of background, has the opportunity to succeed and thrive through the transformative power of education.
