The Ai2 Foundation Inc. is home to the Ai2 Sport program. Our community youth sports organization utilizes a unique teaching method that is built upon care, consistency and sportsmanship. We are dedicated to breaking down barriers and empowering neurodivergent athletes to reach their full potential. We foster a supportive environment of academic accountability for students to emotionally develop into 'student-athletes' allowing them to build confidence and forge friendships while becoming versions of themselves that exist beyond their dreams. With the input of several parents whose children love the sport of basketball, Coach Keith formulated a plan to facilitate the need for a safe space community sports program for all aspiring youth on the Upper West Side.

Raised on the Upper Westside of Manhattan, Keith LeCreed Harris attended PS 145, Joan of Arc MS, Seward Park HS and Coppin State University.
Participating in AAU youth sports leagues as a kid throughout NYC prepared Coach Keith for the ultimate challenge when he participated in the TV sports game show 'Beat The Champions' facing off against NBA Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen. Winning two out of three basketball challenges and securing the MVP for his team, he attributes his success to never losing the 'Winning Mindset' he was taught from a collection of his mentors.
After running for City Council in 2021, Mr. Harris kickstarted several Athletic, Fitness, Physical and Mental Health programs for youth across the city with the Department of Education. The Ai2 Program is an extension of his dedication to enrich the lives of young people across the community through the gift of sport.
