There is a very high turnover rate in the NFL in the management of staff. More than likely the staff in one year will not be the same the next [10].

  • National Football League Youth Football Program Final Report 2011
    National Football League Youth Football Program Final Report 2011 Youth Impact Program 2011 0 A Letter From Our Founder Dear YIP Supporter, We are pleased to bring to you a comprehensive overview of the 2011 Youth Impact Program. We are proud to inform you that we debuted two new camps this summer at Stanford University and the University of Hosuton, in addition to the returning camps, held at Syracuse University for the second time and at Tulane University for the fourth time. The following report has been written to provide a detailed account of the real impact our four camps had on the lives of hundreds of under-served young men through their participation in our program. The 2011 YIP raised over $300,000 in support from individual donors, corporate sponsors, grants, and in-kind donations. In addition to the four universities who hosted the camps, key partners for this year's programs included the NFL Youth Football Fund, SMART Techonlogies, Halliburton, StubHub, the San Francisco 49ers, the Houston Texans, and Champion C9. This year, YIP overcame the hurdles inevitably associated with starting new programs in Stanford and Houston thanks to strong partnerships that transcended football. Also, the established programs at Tulane and Syracuse continued 2010's successes due to the many returning staff members. This summer's camps succeeded in providing an authentic NCAA student-athlete campus experience, complete with food and clothing, to roughly 350 underprivileged young men. In addition to providing role models and mentors for these young men, we have given them hope and a stronger sense of self that they will carry with them through their middle and high school years.

It is a very exciting time for everyone in our organization and we hope it is for our alumni as well. Every day we walk into the practice facility at 4949 Marie P.

The dedication you have shown to this fran- chise and the sacrifices you and your families have made are certainly recognized and will never be forgotten. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Charles Haley on his upcoming induction into the Pro Foot- ball Hall of Fame and the Edward J. DeBartolo, Sr. 49ers Hall of Fame.
