Civic & Social Organization - Beaverton, Oregon, United States
Aim High Academy of Martial Arts, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, is much more than what most people think of as a martial arts school. We have been dedicated to the physical, mental and spiritual development of children and adults in our community since 2005. At Aim High, martial arts is more than just kicking and punching. It is about a way of life. Since our founding, Aim High has helped countless local families receive help through scholarship and tuition assistance. Our students and staff have completed over 10,000 hours in community service projects to benefit other organizations and businesses, hosted monthly workshops for youth, elderly, pre-teen/teen girls and those with disabilities, and so much more. We never turn a family away due to financial reasons, and strive to offer both tuition discounts and full scholarships for students who need them. We estimate that over 5000 families have received help or support though all of our efforts over the years. Our Mission as a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization is to develop the best, well rounded martial artists by means of physical, mental, and over all healthy development. To increase the understanding of martial arts and community in the students, families and team members. Aim High began as a for-profit business in 2005, as a very small instructor-owned studio. As the organization grew, it became evident to it's owner, now the Executive Director, and a group of dedicated parents and martial arts students that Aim High was more than a place to kick and punch. It was a family and community centered environment that led to personal growth and development, and led to social and environmental responsibility. In 2009, Aim High shifted its business classification to that of a non-profit organization with a focus on developing its students and community through education and acts of service.
