May 22, 2025 – The National Archery in the Schools Program is extremely proud to again provide an opportunity for NASP® archers and teams to raise funds for the children and families of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (https://www.stjude.cloud). For several years now, NASP® archers have been voluntarily raising money for those in need by hosting and participating in virtual and in-person fundraising tournaments. For the 2024/2025 season, NASP® is extremely excited to announce that over $31,000 was raised for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital charity.
NASP® President Dr. Tommy Floyd said, “This speaks volumes about NASP® archers and their coaches, as they voluntarily contributed to virtual and in-person tournaments to raise money for kids in need. We could not be more proud of schools and individuals all over the country who contributed to this worthy cause. Not only do our student archers love shooting archery, but they also love helping others in need. We value the idea of helping others, while our NASP® participants pursue excellence on the range.”
The National Archery in the Schools Program promotes international-style target archery as part of in-school curriculum, to improve educational performance and participation in the shooting sports among students in grades 4-12. To learn more about NASP® visit: https://www.naspschools.org
