Lights! Camera! Boxing! The American Association for the Improvement of Boxing’s new online presence is just the start of its 2015 Fundraising Campaign for AAIB Scholars. We also produced a video around the theme of this year’s campaign, “The Boxing Chance.” If a fighting chance is a possibility of success through struggle, a boxing chance is the likelihood of success through strategy.
By concentrating its energy on scholarships, the AAIB has reaffirmed its mission to improve the sport of boxing at the source of boxing’s future – young contenders. In this new video, filmed on location at Willis Avenue Gym in the South Bronx, young contenders and AAIB Scholars Walter Sarnoi and Susan Lizzette Jugo reflect on their unique stories and the boxing chances they were given, in their own words.
The #BoxingChance video is also available for viewing on the campaign's new Indiegogo crowdfunding site and here on the home page of aaib.org.
