About Us

Our Mission

Texas Youth Sports and Education Association (TYSEA) is a community-driven nonprofit committed to transforming lives by empowering youth, adults, and families through education, mentorship, and opportunity. We provide academic support, sports engagement, career readiness, and personal development experiences that help individuals thrive — regardless of background or circumstance.

In partnership with schools, nonprofits, and community leaders, TYSEA offers:

  • Graduation support and student engagement programs
  • College campus visits and career exploration
  • Soft skill development and employment connections
  • Seasonal drives, family events, and resource referrals

Through compassion, empowerment, and service, we work to prevent homelessness and incarceration by building stability, confidence, and lasting change across Harris County and surrounding communities.

Our Vision

To build a Texas where every child, family, and individual—regardless of circumstance has access to education, mentorship, and opportunity. We envision communities strengthened by compassion, equity, and connection, where cycles of poverty and homelessness are broken through proactive support and lasting partnerships.

Founder’s Welcome Message

Welcome to TYSEA Where Hope Meets Action.

I’m Walter Lee, founder of Texas Youth Sports and Education Association. TYSEA was born from a simple but urgent truth: too many young people and families are left behind due to circumstances beyond their control. I’ve seen firsthand how education, mentorship, and community support can change lives, and I’ve made it my mission to make those tools accessible to everyone.

At TYSEA, we don’t just hand out resources, we build relationships. We walk alongside families facing homelessness, youth navigating tough environments, and individuals working to rebuild after incarceration. We partner with schools, nonprofits, and local leaders to create real, lasting change.

Whether you’re here to seek support, offer help, or learn more I’m grateful you found us. Together, we can build a Texas where every child has a chance to thrive.

With gratitude,

Walter Lee
