THE FIVE STAR HEART PROJECT
ONE MISSION. MANY LIVES. ALL HEART.
POWERED BY LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK
A few are gifted with “5 Star Recruit” athleticism. We are here to influence and energize the next generation of “5-Star Heart” student athletes who are willing to listen, learn, and work with an unrelenting desire to succeed in the classroom, on the athletic field, and in life as productive, selfless persons of character.
Our Mission
The Five Star Heart Project Corporation is a volunteer-led 501(c)3 non-profit organization compassionately dedicated to serving the Lehigh Valley and beyond by building youth leaders of character on and off the athletic fields, especially those who come from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds.
We are focused on energizing, influencing, and inspiring the next generation of non-prospective student athletes.
Five Star Heart student athletes are:
infused with a "5-Star Heart," never-quit mindset,
motivated to strive for academic and athletic excellence,
inspired by superior sports performance and sport specific coaching,
held to the highest standards of moral character on and off the field of play,
energized to pursue one’s personal goals and embrace a sense of selflessness for helping others, and
connected to higher education experiences, career exploration opportunities, and persons of positive influence.
