The Best Is Ahead Foundation is an organization founded by the Locksley family that seeks to establish and preserve a legacy rooted in service for societal excellence.
Our purpose is to serve the underprivileged youth in the Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia metropolitan areas, focusing on our key initiatives, while using the name, image, and likeness of The University of Maryland football players. Organizing charitable functions is our specialty.
Through our partnership with the University of Maryland football team, our charitable events remain well attended and garner the attention to be effective and fulfill our mission.

The partnerships at The Best is Ahead Foundation help us enhance the lives of the underserved youth in the Baltimore and Washington DC Metropolitan Areas. We are grateful for these partners and continue to strive to enhance our portfolio and drive our mission forward.
The University of Maryland football players are committed to working with the youth in our community to build a better tomorrow. Through acts of service, volunteering, and partnership with local communities and businesses, we will coach and educate our youth on the importance of mental health, literacy, gun violence prevention and drug and alcohol prevention.
Teamwork is defined as “The process of working collaboratively with a group of people in order to achieve a goal.” We strive to embody this definition at TBIAF. The Best Is Ahead Foundation and all of the athletes, community leaders, partners, and sponsors who support our mission, are dedicated to improving the lives of our youth in the Metro DMV area.
