About Santonio Holmes

Santonio Holmes was born and raised in the small, town of Belle Glade, Florida, where he attended Glades Central High School and played for their football program, leading his teammates to several state titles before starting a college career at Ohio State University.

After achieving an equally successful career as a Buckeye, Santonio left school a year early to become the First round 25th overall pick for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2006. When the Steelers faced the Arizona Cardinals three years later in Super Bowl XLIII, he spearheaded this successful mindset in the championship game catching the winning touchdown and earning the title of MVP. 

The NFL star’s dream for starting 10 All In centers around his story, the trials and tribulations presented early on, and more importantly, how relentless hard work allowed him to achieve his goals and position him where he is today. 
Through 10 All In, Santonio along with a close group of colleagues hope to create similar social change and inspiration among youth and communities whose narratives are similar to his tapping into each individual’s potential and guiding them to success

About 10 All In Foundation

The foundation’s mission is to utilize STEAM-based programs to educate, motivate, and provide opportunities for economically underrepresented communities.10 All In was founded to utilize STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math based programs to educate, motivate, and provide opportunities for economically underrepresented communities in our nation. The organization relies on an empathetic and interactive approach to connect with the community.

The foundation was built on a series of questions: what will we do to support and give back to our hometown? More importantly, how are we going to do it? 

The answer that the two derived was to reverse engineer the current issues that are prominent in the Glade area. A lack of healthcare, education, employment, and limited access to careers outside of athletics and agriculture makes Belle Glade heavily underrepresented economically. Jimmie and Santonio researched efficient ways to shift the paradigm of how the Glade economy is represented and determined that the catalyst to positive change would be to foster be (S)cience (T)echology, (E)ngineering & (M)ath, also known as STEM education in the youth, as they can grow and develop the skills which would allow them to pursue any career they wish to.

The demand for STEM education was growing at a rapid pace, and while they were aware of this, they realized a flaw within the current STEM system. This was the absence of an Art component. Jimmie and Santonio created a STEAM curriculum for multiple reasons. 

1. It gave Jimmie an opportunity to use his skill set to figure out how to address the individual needs of each student in a way that will help them develop into well-rounded contributors to society.

2. A STEAM-based curriculum allows for 10AllIn to help uplift the community by allowing the youth to develop in areas such as Creativity, Confidence, Problem Solving, and Collaboration.
