The Perfect Fit Foundation
A non-profit organization increasing socialization skills & providing opportunities for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities in North Harris county.
Our story
After graduating college and playing professional football, our founder, Quentin Parks, worked for Nimitz High School in North Houston, a Title 1 school with a high percentage of students with special needs. At Nimitz, Quentin met many students who he instantly connected with.
He knew that if given the opportunity, individuals with disabilities could play competitive sports, learn greater skills, and function in the community equitably.
After developing meaningful relationships with many students in the structured learning program and keeping in touch with their parents, Quentin saw a need. He found that many of their parents needed resources, a community, and suggestions on how their child could be more involved. This led to the formation of The Perfect Fit Foundation in 2021.
