What We Do
Sports Participation
We help children participate in organized sports by covering essential costs like uniforms, equipment, and fees—giving young athletes the chance to build confidence, teamwork, and resilience on and off the field.
Recreational Activities
From running clubs to cheer and community programs, we support recreational opportunities that help kids stay active, connected, and engaged in healthy, positive environments.
Extracurricular Involvement
We provide financial support for extracurricular activities such as theater camps, arts programs, and school-based clubs ensuring children can explore their interests, discover their strengths, and grow beyond the classroom.
Mentorship Initiatives
Our programs have a profound impact on communities, transforming the lives of children and fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment.
Our Purpose
Every child deserves a chance to discover who they are through activity and connection. We provide financial resources so kids can participate in sports, arts, and extracurricular programs—honoring the legacy of Tommy ‘T Dub’ Drullinger.
T W Drullinger
Tommy Wayne “T Dub” Drullinger lived with a contagious joy, deep faith, and genuine love for people—especially kids. To honor his legacy, the T.W. Drullinger Foundation was created in 2019 to help children participate in the activities they love, particularly when cost is a barrier. From football helmets and cheer uniforms to running shoes and theater scholarships, the Foundation opens doors for kids to grow in confidence, character, and community. Rooted in T Dub’s lifelong values of faith, family, friends, and activity, the Foundation continues his mission of encouragement, one child, one opportunity at a time.
