About Us

Our background, mission and leadership

Chances For Children-AZ was reorganized on July 1, 2003 as a not-for-profit organization with the purpose of providing children in Arizona opportunities that otherwise may not be affordable to them.

Mission
Chances for Children is committed to improving quality of life by supporting partnerships and programs that provide access to sports, physical education, and character education for youth.

Structure & Leadership
Chances for Children-AZ is headed by Janell Bolen, Executive Director. After working with “at-risk” children in education for over 10 years, Ms. Bolen was intrigued by the opportunity to “provide children a chance”. She has worked closely with the development of Chances for Children Arizona to create such opportunities. Ms. Bolen is also the Vice President of School Operations for Pinnacle Education, and has been closely involved with the Valley of the Sun Cycling Stage Race as the Co-Promoter in 1999-2000. She is an accomplished athlete, has participated in Ironman Hawaii, ITU Age Group Triathlon World Championships, and 2000 Olympic Trials-Cycling, and is the mother of twins born in 2005!

CFC-AZ’s Board of Trustees is comprised of three community members.
