OUR MISSION //

House of J Boxing Club is dedicated to building stronger individuals and a stronger community through the discipline of boxing. We provide a safe, inclusive environment for people of all ages and abilities, especially youth and individuals with special needs, to develop fitness, confidence, and life skills. Our program promotes respect, resilience, and healthy lifestyles, empowering members to reach their potential both in and out of the ring.

\\WHERE ARE WE INVOLVED?

House of J is committed to showing up for our community. From partnering with the Harrison Museum of African American Culture to supporting events at Melrose Plaza, our team is active, present, and always ready to lend a hand.

We volunteer together, serve together, and stand as a united force wherever we’re needed.

And as House of J continues to grow, our involvement in the Roanoke community will only get stronger.

This is just the beginning of the impact we plan to make.

TESTIMONIALS FROM THE HARRISON

EB Smith | Director, Harrison Museum of African American Culture

Balance. Purpose. Service. Discipline. The practice of any martial pursuit requires a mastery of one's mind, heart, and relationships. The House of J instills in its students a profound intellectual and emotional curiosity, resulting in some of the most exceptional young people I have had the pleasure of meeting. I'm grateful for the positive impact this organization makes and look forward to seeing its growth.

The House of J will always have a very special place in my heart. I love working with young people, but it's even more dynamic to see young people's actions at work and seeing these young bricklayers. 
Giving of themselves, giving their talents, is such a gift. Working down here at the Harrison Museum of African American Culture, just warmed my heart when I walked in one day and I saw all these young people, diligently working; painting, constructing, helping one another. That to me symbolized what it means to invest in our young people and to see them freely giving back, and with that I will always be appreciative and love, love, love seeing our youth in action! Blessings & peace and love always, thank you for the great work you do.
