Children, and parents alike, will experience a day of empowerment through celebrity and athlete mentorship segments, breakout sessions (character development, open mic, financial literacy, health/wellness, determining your success), zumba, yoga, and hands-on activities that promote a healthier lifestyle – mentally, physically, and financially.
This year’s celebrity and athletic mentors include: NBA, NFL, & WNBA Players, Actors, Authors, Musicians & Artists
Baggs, President of the CETA Foundation, says, “We have been able to leverage our initial foundation of previously successful football camps and lifestyle programs to evolve this year’s annual symposium into something that encompasses athletics, the arts and entertainment as a draw to broaden our reach and to greater impact our community. With the city and major influentials on board, we are excited to host another great event.”

Mission
To enhance the mind, body, and spirit to fuel the future through a health and wellness platform that leads to self-reliance, self-respect, self-esteem and self-worth. CETA Foundation proposes to CREATE EMPOWERMENT in those who are systematically and socially disenfranchised while building AUTONOMY in their efforts towards self-determination.
Purpose
We are a health and wellness foundation that believes ones true wealth is ones true health. We also believe that ones wellness is attached to their spiritual, mental, financial, emotional, and physical well-being. Through workshops, seminars and interactive programs, CETA Foundation will provide individuals, neighborhoods and communities information, education and activities, and will make available resources that lead to self-reliance and self-determination.
Principles
CETA Foundation is spiritually based, community oriented and charitable. We believe that all mankind should have informational access; should be afforded due process; and have the right of self-determination as they carve their own niche in this society. We believe everyone is capable of participating when provided the right resources. Resources lead to self-reliance, which aids in self-respect and self-worth which leads to being a contributing member of this society.
