I have watched Blue Heart change the lives of so many young men... As the only organization that caters to AA youth they are simply an amazing blessing.
Love love LOVE Blue Heart! Tracy puts so much blood, sweat and tears guiding these young men to greatness! He has the energy to carry this organization and it shows, I've witnessed many of these young men being accepted into not just one college, but numerous. I love watching these guys grow and I'm always flattered when they want me to come out to capture some moments for them.
The Blue Heart Foundation does an amazing job at serving the community by helping develop young men into scholars, professionals, and leaders!!! Awesome program!!!

The Blue Heart Foundation is an amazing organization founded by Mr. Tracy Morris, who has a passion and drive for helping young men reach their full potential and succeed. Through community service, mentorship programs, strength building and positive life skill programs, Mr. Morris, works tirelessly and selflessly to help these young men become motivated, educated and passionate about their futures! This is a tremendous program and the young men involved in this group are to be comended for their hard work and dedication to themselves and their community!
Tracy does a phenomenal job with these young men. He's a selfless leader who sacrifices his time and energy to benefit others. He's definitely made from a different cloth. Kudos
This is my sons second year attending the Blue Heart Foundation. We wanted to show our son that he is capable of being a Leader on and off the field. The mentors in Blue Heart are positive like minded young men, who teach and lead our our boys to be empowered, educated, and compassionate leaders. This foundation teaches our boys to put others first by hands on volunteer work in their communities. They also hold work shops once a month. In these work shops our young men are taught finances, domestic violence, the importance of college, help with applying to colleges, and peer to peer discussions. I am a proud Blue Heart parent! I
My youngest son literally went from getting D’s and C’s to almost all A’s! Are you serious! Wow! My son tells me, every time he comes back from Blue Heart, that he had the best day of his life, LOL! Thank you!
Blue Heart has helped my son tremendously! I’ve seen the changes in my son, and I can only imagine the impact that The Blue Heart Foundation could have on our community as a whole.
Doing the 2016-2017 academic year my grandson was a member of the Blue Heart family of young men and mentors. He became a member doing a critical point in his life as he grappled with academic and personal decisions. The challenges of being a Black male teenager handling decisions about direction and importance of choices and associations could have derailed him. His participation in the program provided him with an opportunity to interface with mentors community leaders and peers. The team building
activities challenged his assumptions about life and his future. The program immersed the group academically, socially, and culturally by providing exposure to cultural events, political actions, civic leaders, educators, and service opportunities. One of the most memorable activity was the opportunity to camp and surf providing excellent exposure to our parks and nature.
While he transitions early from the program, he has never stopped communicating with his mentor Tracy Morris. He regularly follows the program online. He frequently speaks to me about relevant stories he heard when he was an active participant in the program. He said to me that he has already asked Tracy for a letter of recommendation for College and he said,”yes”. This let me know that the Blue Heart team is in it for the long haul.
I am very grateful for the program and for the leadership provided by Mr. Morris and his support team. The Blue Heart program focuses on the building and supporting of the development of confidence, resourcefulness, loyalty, determination and drive. My grandson has had to overcome many challenges but his tenacity and determination were encouraged and supported by Blue Heart. I am watch him him make decisions about the next steps in his life incorporating skills he started building upon as a member of the Blue Heart family. Thank you.
“I first became familiar with the mentoring program Blue Heart almost three years ago, and was extremely impressed with the impact it was having on with at-risk young men in Southeast San Diego. Blue Heart is very unique in its approach to mentoring as it seeks to develop young boys without positive male influences and/or fathers. It is in an effective and comprehensive mentoring program proven to dramatically and positively impact young men, and Tracy Morris works to include an impressive parenting component in tandem to better address the needs of the whole child.” — Roosevelt Johnson Teacher at Wilson Middle School
This is an amazing organization that continues to empower & inspire our youth! Programs such as the Blue Heart Foundation should be implemented across every city in this country. Keep up the great work!!
My son just joined Blue Heart and so far we have been welcomed with open arms! One of the seniors who has been in the group for 4 years, initiated contact with my son and made him feel part of the group. That just shows the influence Blue Heart has on these young men. It teaches them to find courage and confidence within themselves so they can be a positive role model to others. We are looking forward to all of the community service activities and workshops scheduled for the group this year!
My son has been a part of the Blue Heart Foundation for more than a year. In this short time he has volunteered on at least a monthly basis to non-profit events like the March of Dimes walk as well as many community food and clothing drives. He has visited multiple colleges and learned what it takes to not only earn his place at a university but interview for a job, dress well and present himself to others. He has attended plays and baseball games.
Most importantly he is gaining a a greater understanding of what he needs to do to better himself and how he can contribute to his community. Tracy Morris has built a strong family of boys that support and mentor each other. My son's grades and focus on academics have improved and I look forward to what the future brings for him and his Blue Heart family.
Blue Heart Foundation really cares about their young men... its rare you see an organisation that truly wants tbeir young men ti succeed.
What young men learn through the Blue Heart Foundation is invaluable. They learn the value of education and self worth, how to act responsibly and how to be a contributing member of society, how to give back, and how to make and execute a plan to excel. They are community focused and civic-minded. They are our future leaders and are prepared for leading. I am constantly impressed by these young men and their level of preparedness for service and excellence. They are everything I imagine the future to be. --Geneviéve Jones-Wright, Esq.
I am a big fan of the Blue Heart Foundation for all the work they have done with the young men in our community. Tracy Morris works tirelessly to enrich, inspire and educate our youth and make sure their road to a college degree is a memorable and fun experience!
