OUR WHY
Why Does Brewster’s Place Exists?
At Brewster’s Place, we believe that everyone deserves the tools and support to overcome life’s challenges and reach their full potential.
Founded in 2015 by Former World Heavyweight Boxing Champion Lamon Brewster and his wife Juana, our mission is deeply rooted in the values of resilience, discipline, and determination.
These are the same principles that carried Lamon to victory in the ring and now inspire our work in communities worldwide.

Whether it’s through our mentoring programs, mental health initiatives, or resilience-building activities, we’re committed to helping individuals of all ages find their inner strength and achieve lasting success.
