Devils Youth Foundation Announces Record $1.3 Million Worth of Grants

The Devils Youth Foundation announced today for the upcoming 2025-26 season that it has issued a record $1.3 million worth of grants supporting 35 local organizations and awarded ten high school students with a $5,000 scholarship each for the second annual Devils Youth Foundation Scholarship Program, in collaboration with New Jersey Devils Alumni. The Foundation continues to break its record of grant offerings annually.

The 2025-26 Grant Class is a diverse mix of returning and new partners, and the Foundation aims to foster innovation and collaboration within its grantee network. Each grant category has been designed to reflect a pillar of the Foundation: physically and mentally healthy kids, food and nutrition security, access to the arts, and getting kids active and moving. Through multi-year grant commitments and strategic partnerships, the Devils Youth Foundation will significantly impact the lives of over 86,000 youth and its support of community outreach programs throughout New Jersey.

“At the Devils Youth Foundation, our mission is rooted in strengthening the communities we serve,” said Allison Blitzer, Chair of the Devils Youth Foundation. “This growth reflects our ongoing commitment to creating meaningful, lasting value—ensuring that youth across the state have real access to physical and mental wellness, food and nutrition security, the arts, and education. By continuing to raise the bar, we are expanding our reach and helping to build healthier, more resilient communities for generations to come.”
