Crescent Moon Foundation
Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee and nine-time Pro Bowl selection Warren Moon has always been generous with his time and resources.
“From its inception during my time in Houston, the Crescent Moon Foundation has always been extremely special to me,” said Moon. “Our nation’s youth deserve every opportunity to succeed and the foundation gives hard working children a chance they might otherwise not have.”
Established in 1989, the Crescent Moon Foundation is a 501©(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing support for educational pursuits that will benefit children most in need who have displayed a commitment to their community, as well as other charitable causes. As part of the Crescent Moon Foundation’s mission, the Rising Moon Scholarship Program awards ten scholarships of up to $5,000 annually to students that demonstrate a commitment to their community, excel in leadership and academics, and who are in need.
“My mother taught me at a young age the importance of giving back,” said Moon, a Los Angeles native and Washington Huskies alum. “Unfortunately, not all kids today have someone guiding them or providing them with the means for success. It is my sincere hope the Crescent Moon Foundation can assist in that regard.”
