Warm greetings from More Than An Athlete!

At More Than An Athlete (MTAA), we are committed to empowering student-athletes and strengthening communities through mentorship, emotional intelligence, and hands-on partnership. We don’t just guide. We actively participate in execution, helping athletes turn vision into sustainable ventures, going pro in something else other than athletics. As part of this mission, we proudly support Quality Clucks, a business that represents the transition of an athlete into a business owner. Through structured mentorship, goal setting, and direct collaboration, we have worked alongside Chef Desmond Parks to bring this vision to life. Chef Des, a former student-athlete at the University of Florida, embodies discipline, resilience, and leadership—values that were initially developed through sports, but now drive the brand forward.

Today, we are reaching out to ask for your support on behalf of Quality Clucks.

Your support will help us expand back office and kitchen operations, improve food accessibility, enhance menu offerings, support local events and student initiatives, create jobs, and continue delivering high-quality meals that bring people together. All of this while still focusing on the underlying emotional intelligence foundation that More Than An Athlete looks to develop and promote through all of its partnerships of this nature.

By supporting Quality Clucks, you are investing in a proven model where mentorship meets execution—helping athletes successfully transition into entrepreneurship while creating lasting community impact.

We kindly invite you to donate in support of Quality Clucks. Your generosity will directly contribute to continued growth and meaningful impact.
