Project Onyx is Making a Difference

This tribe is a VIBE.

For the second year in a row, kids from Project Onyx took on the CrossFit Open.

Project Onyx is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to eliminate racial disparities in health and fitness by empowering young people of color through education and fitness opportunities, accessible health and fitness services, and mentorship programs.

“For me the most rewarding part of Project Onyx is just the relationship that we’ve created,” co-founder Elijah "EZ" Muhammad says. “Allowing (kids) to have a safe space to trust us and be vulnerable. … You just want to be there for them, you just want to support them, and help them, and make sure they have whatever resources they need.”
