The incredible impact he had on many young athletes as a coach and supporter were guided by these principles. The Rudy Perez Jr. Memorial Foundation was created following Rudy’s passing in 2021. To continue his legacy, the Rudy Perez Jr. Memorial Foundation was created with the vision of empowering young athletes to reach their potential in the sports they love. Proceeds raised by the foundation benefit young athletes in need of financial assistance by purchasing equipment, paying for team fees, and providing college scholarships to young athletes to further their academic and athletic careers.
