URBAN CELEBRITY BOXING LEAGUE (UCBL), founded by Ray Santiago, has been hosting these “dream matches” with professional boxers, artists, and influencers since 2018. These celebrity matches are not being held just for fun or “likes” the purpose behind these boxing matches is to support the House Of Hits Baseball and Boxing Foundation. Helping kids at risk to achieve success in sports, school, and college. The foundation promotes the same view of UCBL of “trading guns for gloves” and encourages the stop of violence.
UCBL and House Of Hits Baseball and Boxing Foundation has helped many Floridian kids go thru college and stay focused when they would have otherwise fallen victim to the streets.
“Gloves up guns down” is the slogan that helps these kids fight another day! Teach our youth that guns and violence is not the answer. We have donated over $15,000 this year to Azalea Park little leagues to revamp the fields. We are donating a mural for Roberto Clemente Middle School, that will be on their wall forever at the school where I went to as a youth.” said Ray Santiago.
