C4C -- Coaches 4 Change (C4C) is an organization that is founded by college basketball coaches who are dedicated to help their student-athletes, their campus, and their communities. The mission of C4C is to provide a platform that engages, educates, empowers, and evolves the collegiate student-athlete on issues of social injustices, systemic racism, and the power of voting in the endless pursuit of equality.

The University of Dayton's Andy Farrell, who is Special Assistant to the Head Coach and Recruiting Coordinator for the Flyers, is a charter member of the group.  

"I'm honored to be a part of Coaches 4 Change," Farrell said.  "This is a way for me to use my voice, as a coach and as a man, to help other coaches, student-athletes, and all of our communities fight racial inequality and social injustices. I stand by the values and pillars of C4C to use our platform as college basketball coaches to help create a better future. A future that our sons and daughters can be proud of and not live in fear. A future that is better tomorrow."

The 4 Pillars of C4C are to:

•    ENGAGE our fellow coaches & student-athletes within our campus & local communities.  To raise awareness and involvement in the endless pursuit for equality through voter registration. 
•    EDUCATE our fellow coaches & student athletes with historical information pertaining to systemic racism, social injustice(s,) police brutality, and significant events that have shaped our country. 
•    EMPOWER our fellow coaches & student-athletes to inspire change through the power of voting. 
•    EVOLVE the minds of our fellow coaches & student-athletes to help foster positive changes within their collegiate and local communities surrounding the issues of racism & social injustice.

Our pillars will serve as the 4 foundational elements that will guide our endless pursuit of EQUALITY.  For more information, please visit www.coaches4change.org or on social media @Coaches4Change.
