Growing up, John Collar didn’t know that squash could be something other than a yellow vegetable. As an adult, he now uses the game of squash to help teach a group of at-risk kids the principles of leadership and self-esteem and how to improve their grades.
Collar, a family law attorney at Boyd Collar Nolen & Tuggle, is the academics chairman for A+ Squash, a nonprofit organization that pairs at-risk students with adults during after-school activities. In addition to learning how to play squash, the kids also get hands-on homework help from adults and college students.
