Abundant Outreach Association
This program was initially established in the spring of 2006 as a boxing program for the Abundant Faith Church youth group by Pastor Art Cardenas and Greg Alvarez. Outreach began to other youth at local schools to come and try the boxing program as an after-school activity. The program quickly grew from just 10 youth to 30 youth. In 2009 AOA officially became a non-profit organization and started other programs within itself to expand and reach more youth.
