The mission of the International Boxing Club is to "empower
youth in the Greater Toledo Area to succeed in life". To
accomplish its mission, IBC uses the platform of amateur |

boxing to reach underserved youth who
are at-risk for academic failure, gang involvement, substance
abuse, teenage pregnancy, suicide and other destructive
behaviors. IBC has provided after school programs that focus on
academic, cultural, social and recreational learning
opportunities to more than 3,000 youth since its incorporation
in 1998. In 2007, IBC
launched the "Gloves With Love Program" as a natural outgrowth
of the IBC Learning Center. In this program, service learning
activities are coordinated with local and regional organizations
such as the Hungarian Club, Sister Cities, Lucas County
Metropolitan Housing Authority, St. Paul's Community Center,
Special Olympics of Ohio and The Victory Center. Through service
learning activities youth learn civic responsibility, teamwork,
problem solving and continuous improvement practices, as well as
compassion for the elderly, disabled, and economically
disadvantaged.
We are grateful for you past and
continuing support of our programs.
The celebration will be held at
the International Boxing Club, which is located at 1717 Adams
St. in uptown Toledo at 5:00PM.
