What started as a grassroots movement to honor Bruce Lee’s philosophies and dedication to his craft and his life, is becoming a thriving 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that motivates individuals around the world to become the best version of themselves.
Through a number of educational and social initiatives, the Bruce Lee Foundation encourages people to strive for honest self-expression in alignment with their mind, body, and spirit. Consistent with Bruce Lee’s innate belief, we know that we can impact the world by giving people permission to follow their dreams, in harmony with their community.
Since 2002, the Bruce Lee Foundation has provided over $80,000 in financial assistance to students and families within the United States.

The Bruce Lee Action Museum (BLAM), is an experience in community, education, and innovation. Functioning on several different levels, BLAM ultimately will be realized as a dedicated interactive place of learning that explores the idea of action in all its forms.
Bruce Lee’s Little Dragons provides life confidence skills and martial arts training to underprivileged youth. The program gives kids who have a sincere desire to pursue martial arts, but cannot afford to do so, the opportunity to participate.
“The Bruce Lee Foundation is helping students who need money for college or encouraging kids to take part in martial arts for self-protection. The BLF is a beacon of leadership and thoughtfulness, two of the things that Bruce Lee stood for.”
“My mantra is created through wanting to make a difference for others, no matter how small, especially when that difference provides a platform for building self confidence and self-worth in children and offers scholarships for young adults.”
“Working with the scholarship review process, in a small way, allows me to help make a positive impact. It's great to come home from work, turn off all the bad news in the world, and read about someone's achievements and dreams.”
“I was adopted from Zhejiang China and, although I am grateful for my life in America, I often feel myself losing touch with my heritage. BLF helped me regain a sense of my culture and helped turn my dreams of college into a reality.”
“This scholarship has changed the way I envisioned my college experience, from something that would challenge me financially to something that will challenge me academically. Thank you for the opportunity to pursue my education with a reckless commitment to happiness.”
"Bruce Lee has been a source of inspiration ever since I watched my first Bruce Lee film when I was five. I can think of no better way to honor his legacy than supporting BLF in sharing such a positive message and helping others achieve their goals."
