Karate For All OSU! Foundation

The Karate For All OSU! Foundation is a non-profit organization founded in 2001 by Hanshi Larry F. Giordano. Its purpose is to bring the Art of Karate and its teachings to students that could not afford it and perhaps could benefit from it most.

Hanshi's primary focus was to keep youngsters from going down the wrong paths of smoking, drinking, drugs and hanging out. Gang membership in a major concern in our area and of course does not benefit anyone.

When a child develops a stong self-awareness, self-esteem and inner strength, they are able to resist peer pressure. This helps them stay away from the gang activities, smoking, drinking and drugs.

Karate training provided at No Charge by our foundation will give each child the self respect to resist peer pressure and so much more in their everyday life. This is what Karate For All OSU! is all about, helping children reach their goals in life and knowing they can do it on their own!

Karate also teaches respect for life, family and the community, helping build stronger children, families and neighborhoods.

Through Grants and Donations we make The Karate For All Osu! Foundation available to children in need.
