Quarterbacks of Life

The Beating the Odds Foundation has pooled together a unique group of motivated individuals called the Quarterbacks of Life®.

These are men and women who chose to fight through incredible setbacks in life, and, in the end, won over adversity. And this is the key point of the Beating the Odds Foundation: By never giving up, every person can design his or her own destiny. The Quarterbacks of Life® who have joined with the Beating the Odds Foundation share their stories with America’s youth to inspire and motivate them to achieve success in their own lives.
