About Us

The Heit Foundation was born from the belief that combat sports have the power to transform lives. Founded by Jason Heit, who grew up immersed in a boxing bloodline, the foundation was inspired by his own journey as an at-risk youth. Boxing gave Jason the outlet he needed to set and achieve goals, build resilience, and gain the mentorship that guided him toward a brighter future. Today, he is driven to provide the same opportunities for others.

Since its inception, the foundation has grown into a hub for fostering healthy lifestyles, self-empowerment, and positive mentorship through the discipline of boxing and combat sports. More than just a sport, boxing serves as a medium to connect individuals to motivated peer groups, instill life skills both in and out of the gym, and build pathways toward positive futures.

We believe that everyone, regardless of their background, deserves access to the tools for a healthy mind and body, the support of a strong community, and the confidence to achieve their dreams.
