BRIDGE ELITE GLOBAL Foundation is a

non-profit organization established by

Rod Lemons who is an American native

and former professional basketball player.

Lemons utilizes basketball as a "hook"

to bring awareness to ELITE athletes on

the benefits of using their platforms in

a positive manner to increase their quality

of life, as well as their respective families.

This will be achieved by outsourcing their

networks in collaboration with like minded

ELITE athletes on a global scale for the

purpose of networking various innovative

business ideas, resources, and experiences.
