Smokin' Joe Frazier @ Sports Museum

On Wednesday, July 16, 2008, Athletes for Charity was extended a very special opportunity to bring our summer interns to meet and greet former World Heavyweight Champion and International Boxing Hall of Famer Smokin' Joe Frazier at the Sports Museum of America.

The Boxing Great signed autographs and offered our students words of wisdom encouraging them to listen to their parents and to focus on their academics. We were honored to present Mr. Frazier with an Athletes for Charity t-shirt which he immediately put on and posed for photographs with us.

Special thanks to Mr. Frazier and Les Wolff of Smart Marketing Group for their continued support of Athletes for Charity. To view footage of our visit with Joe Frazier.
