ALF also works to educate young people about the importance of good nutrition and regular exercise.

Another program the Ann Liguori Foundation supports is the ALF Sports Media Scholarship, assisting young women hoping to pursue a career in sports media and the Jim Liguori Memorial Scholarship at the University of South Florida.
