Esports has become one of the most powerful entry points for student engagement and when structured with intention, it can build skills that last far beyond the game.
The Respawn Youth Fund helps make those opportunities possible.
Together with the ESTA Foundation, we’re creating pathways for students to explore teamwork, leadership, communication, and career readiness through esports-based education.
Your support goes directly toward initiatives that give students and schools the resources they need to thrive:
Program Implementation

Curriculum Development
Researching and designing educational materials that connect gaming with learning outcomes.
Coach Training
Onboarding and equipping coaches to guide students through classes and competition.
