ABOUT US

GBAF

The Grand Blanc Athletic Foundation recognizes the work of boosters and teams fundraising independently. With no desire to undercut those valuable efforts, the Foundation organizers saw a need for larger-scale possibilities to be realized with an umbrella 501 (c)3 that will benefit all Grand Blanc student-athletes.

Grand blanc high school THERMAL THERAPY UNITS

The GBAF approved to fund in full  the procurement of two
ThemX Thermal Therapy units along with accessory hook-ups
and travel cases. These units will benefit and have immediate
impact on the student-athletes recovery from injury. These
units are available for all GBHS student-athletes through the
athletic department and athletic trainer. The GBAF is pleased
that we could fund this need for our GBHS student-athletes.
