Read the full missionWhat defines Alumni In Action isn't only who we help. It's how we show up — for the student, the parent, and the coach alike.

AIA promotes athletics at Francis Polytechnic High School and other Los Angeles inner-city schools, creating opportunities for students, parents, and coaches in the community.
We conduct seminars for parents to get them more involved in their student's college preparation and future — because the family is part of the team.
Part of the plan for AIA is to promote fundraisers, provide scholarships, and receive donations from prominent businesses and organizations.
AIA also plans to distribute donated turkeys to families of under-privileged students in the Los Angeles area.
