Our Founder

Tyler Everett, Founder

Tyler Everett, a former Ohio State University standout and NFL player, has turned his passion for football into a lifelong commitment to service through the creation of The HOPE Foundation. Rooted in the belief that everyone deserves access to opportunity, encouragement, and support, the foundation was established to give back to communities by empowering youth, supporting families in need, and promoting positive development through education, mentorship, and outreach initiatives. Drawing from his own journey and the lessons learned on and off the field, Tyler Everett continues to lead with purpose, using his platform to inspire hope, strengthen communities, and create lasting change for the next generation.
