Kim shares her passion for cooking with Triple Threat youth in the Chop Masters program! Three years later and she is still going strong in the 3T program. Awesome, right?
Thanks Kim for sharing your amazing talent and passion with 3T youth! 
Sometimes we want to dismiss things that society might view as negative
But at Triple Threat, we try and embrace those things. If it’s something at-risk youth wanna do, then we wanna do it. 
That’s why I’m STOKED to announce a new program we’re calling TKO MMA — which stands for The Kids Of MMA. 
Wha….. kids are gonna fight? Yup. But it’s much deeper and structured than just that. 
Through an awesome grant, we’ve been able to partner with renowned martial artist Severiano Moreno. This guy is so legit, he founded his own martial arts system that's recognized by the Aikijukado Association called heiwasensijustsu. Moreno was even inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame. 
So what’s it all mean? 
We think it’s a frriggin rad opportunity to connect with some kids. MMA has exploded in popularity in recent years, and we’d be dumb to ignore the fact that kids wanna get in the ring. 
So we don’t ignore it. We embrace it. We’re building the most BA barracus MMA curriculum around. The fighting part is only a small part of what this is all about. More than anything, TKO MMA is gonna be about character-building and overcoming obstacles while gettin fit. 
And above all, it’s a prime example of how we roll at 3T. Whatever your passion is, we help you share it with at-risk youth. It’s awesome sauce. 

An awesome new partner CDW Corporation hooked us up with iPads! We started using them in our programs and the results have been rad! 3T kids LOVE the opportunity to work with the technology in programs.
Thanks to Steve Staines and CDW for hookin’ up! 

We have technology that works! Thanks to a grant from the Community Foundation of the Fox River Valley, we were able to update our office technology. The grant award was for $9,800! Man we are grateful! We have purchased a new printer/fax machine, and 4 new computers. Now that is what we call AWESOME SAUCE!
Chest bump to Community Foundation of the Fox River Valley!


Students and staff planted flowers, played games and visited with seniors. Jennings Terrace residents enjoyed their updated digs and time with the students.

Thanks Quad County and staff of Jennings Terrace! YOU ROCK!



Triple Threat youth have lasting impact on Junior Board!
Our staff brought some older 3T students to Axia Law to kick it with our Junior Board. 3T youth shared their personal but amazing stories of the impact Triple Threat had on them. AWESOME RIGHT!?!

Triple Threat is bringing its passion-based programs to Nicaragua! 3T created a partnership with Ginger Creek Community Church to make a lasting change to the youth of Nicaragua, Managua. Gnarly right?
We leave in just a few short months! The trip is August 4 – 11. 
Create your legacy by donating TODAY or tomorrow at triplethreat.org/nicaragua or by eating at Buffalo Wild Wings in Naperville on Wednesday, June 11th.
