Clayton has been part of the Marty Hennessy Inspiring Childten Foundation and the elite TEAM BRYAN Leadership program since he was nine years old. As captain of TEAM BRYAN he has represented the Foundation at the United States Tennis Association’s Annual meeting, U.S. OPEN and NJTL Excellence Team Cup.

As a Student at Odyssey Charter School Alenik has a 4.5 grade point average and presently has all A’s.

 

“We have had the pleasure to watch Clayton grow into an extraordinary young man, ” said coach Tim Blenkiron. “His greatest impact is as a leader who is kind and good natured to everyone. He is loyal, hard working and a big part of our family tradition. He never quit and is now reaping the benefits.”

 

Alenik is the captain of the TEAM BRYAN Leadership Program and is a great example of the Foundation’s core values.

 

“The honesty and trust that our friendship has is unlike any other, ” said teammate Mario Aguayo. “Whenever I feel down or alone, he always finds a way to bring me back up. He is one of the nicest guys I ever met and I can’t overstate all the joy that he brought to my life.”

 

Alenik was selected for the Foundation’s prestigious Post Graduate Internship Program where he took on key roles running the non-profit Foundation this year. This comprehensive “project driven learning” program arms students like Alenik with the real life experience and leadership responsibilities to prepare them for colleges like the Airforce Academy. During this time Alenik helped create and lead a campaign that raised over $80,000.

 

Alenik joins a long list of alumni that are now at some of the best colleges in the world including Stanford, Princeton, Harvard, Georgetown, The Citadel, Vanderbilt, BYU, Wharton School of Business at University of Pennsylvania and many others.

 

“It’s neat to see my brother benefit from the same program that changed my life,” said Trent Alenik, a Foundation alumni and now the organization’s Executive Director. “The whole Foundation is proud of him.”

 

Clayton Alenik is from a family of five, his parents Dave and Annie, sister Bianca and brother Trent. Their family has been a donor and supporter of the Foundation for over a decade.

 

“I have always said “Parents make it possible,” said Ryan Wolfington who started the Foundation as a volunteer fourteen years ago. “The Alenik family has always been there to support the programs and to buy in 100%. This scholarship is largely due to their great parenting and support.”

 

Many of Clayton’s teammates are proud of him. As captain he leads by example as a high level student, volunteer and servant leader.

 

“Clayton is such a positive and welcoming person and I am so glad that I can be around him on a daily basis,” said teammate Sophie Henderson. “When I first began the program Clayton really made me feel like I belonged and it meant a lot to me. I don’t know what we will do when he is gone. ”

 

Clayton said he incredibly excited to be attending the Air Force Academy this coming fall.

 

“I know I couldn’t have done it without my parents, brother, sister: and the Foundation has been my rock,” said Alenik. “There were times I didn’t think I would get into any colleges and now having the privilege to say I will be attending the United States Air Force Academy is an incredible honor and I know I will maximize the opportunities in the classroom, on the court, and in my life.”
