Our Mission
A Future Without Limits
At the Barry Bonds Family Foundation, we believe that no child’s future should be limited by circumstances beyond their control. Far too many children in underserved communities lack access to basic resources, quality education, and the support they need to succeed—and we refuse to let them be left behind.
Building Brighter Futures Since 1993
Since 1993, our mission has been deeply personal. We are committed to lifting up children who need it most, ensuring they have the opportunities, encouragement, and resources to build brighter futures.


75,000+

Marc Berman - Director of Fund Development - Silicon Valley Education Foundation "Based on the generosity of Barry Bonds and the Barry Bonds Family, the No Greater Sacrifice Foundation had the opportunity to bring six of our scholarship recipients to the Miami area for a weekend of mentorship, coaching, and fun. No Greater Sacrifice is committed to providing a debt-free college education to the children of our nation's fallen and severely wounded Service members, but we also provide personalized mentorship to each of our scholarship recipients, in an effort to ensure their success in their educational goals and their future careers. The Barry Bonds Family Foundation provided us an opportunity and a venue to bring these young men together, forge deep bonds, and help these young men better define their educational and career goals. We simply cannot thank you enough for all of your generosity, support, and commitment to our nation's Service members and their families."
