The Urban Legacy Foundation was established to honor Peter G. Urban. He was an early pioneer in bringing Karate to America. The Urban Legacy Foundation is a registered non-profit, making all donations tax-deductible.
Support our scholarship fund with as little as $40 for a yearly membership.
This donation honors Grand Master Peter Urban’s vision and teachings. It helps younger martial artists seeking higher education. The Urban Legacy Foundation aims to nurture future leaders in the arts. Your contribution advances this noble cause. Optional membership tiers are also available.
Martial artists pursuing higher education can vie for annual scholarships from the Foundation. Any style practitioner may apply with an Active Member’s endorsement. Candidates will be required to email an essay on a topic of their choice to our judging panel. We encourage including recommendation letters from educators, religious leaders, or community service supervisors. In our inaugural year, 2023, we awarded two $550 scholarships. Students should showcase their academic prowess and martial arts dedication in their applications. The Foundation aims to support those who balance rigorous study with disciplined training.
With your donation, we hope for continued success. Each member receives a beautiful membership certificate, as well as a Foundation patch.
The foundation also offers discounts on:
Any training seminar or tournament the Foundation conducts is offered at an active member price, and this discount extends to the merchandise that the Foundation offers. (T-Shirts, Hooded Sweatshirts, Patches)
The Foundation partners with Dojo/Dojang Supporters for charity events. We seek teachers who, like us, value higher education.
We thank you for your support in helping to promote education and mentor strong, martial artists for future generations.
