YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

The Drug Free Sports Association ( DFSA ) is a not-for-profit organization which promotes natural athletics; financially assists natural athletes so they can compete in the physique sport of their choice; educates youth on the benefits of staying natural; and uses the 'muscle' of natural physique competitors to 'make a global difference'.

Lack of understanding, illness, obesity, chemical dependence, depression, and other personal or family issues, often seem like insurmountable obstacles preventing people from being happy in body, mind, heart, and spirit. However, the DFSA knows that with help, support, education, and the right role models, all obstacles can be overcome, and everyone, at any time, can change their life and become BodyProud.


Education and testing are key elements to achieving our goal of eliminating illegal drugs from sports competition. Funds donated to the DFSA will increase the number of competitors tested during competitions and at random times throughout the year. Donated funds will also allow Natural FAME Athletes and Models, who are true role models for today's youth, to travel and speak to groups of all ages about living and training the Body Proud way.


NATURAL ATHLETICS: Health and fitness go hand in hand. Unfortunately, some people still believe the same holds true for weight training and steroids. People falsely believe that illegal performance drugs are the solution to building a fit physique, winning the upper hand, and/or bridging the gap in their lacking self esteem. Fortunately, this is not the case. Since the birth of the World Natural Sports Organization (WNSO) in 1998, drug tested physique competitions and natural athletics have been on the rise. Dedicating oneself to learning healthy nutrition habits; setting -- and being accountable to -- new goals; and respecting your body, ultimately leads to the mental and physical benefits associated with being BodyProud. It has since been proven that training for -- and competing in -- natural physique competitions leads to improved levels of fitness, newfound confidence, better health, as well as feeling BodyProud in mind, body, heart, and spirit. It also goes one step further in that it inspires those you love: your children, spouse, parents, friends, co-workers, and/or family. Having a platform, such as the FAME World Tour, to display the results of your efforts, provides incentivized motivation for natural athletes to sculpt their dream physique. DFSA helps makes this possible by covering entry fees for those who need assistance; and funding drug testing costs to facilitate an even playing field for physique athletes competing in natural events




EDUCATING YOUTH: Today's youth are constantly bombarded with news stories related to athletes testing positive for performance enhancing drugs. It can be hard for individuals striving to better themselves to make the right decisions when they see those that they look up to turning to drugs to achieve their goals. DFSA appoints BodyProud Role Models, such as WNSO Pros and FAME Cover Models to educate, and inspire, youth to remain drug-free. Visually strong and obviously fit, these natural athletes are the perfect role models to lead by example. Through them, public service announcements, print and media campaigns, and seminars and workshops, the DFSA, through your contributions, is able to inspire youth worldwide to lead a healthy lifestyle and stay drug-free.

MUSCLES MAKING A DIFFERENCE EVERYWHERE (MMADE) Healthy, fit, positive role models with beautiful naturally sculpted physiques catch the media's attention. So whether it's speaking to high schoolers; stripping down and oiling up to help build a senior center; hosting fitness awareness stunts; inspiring youth; community outreach; and/or manual labour, the MMADE recruits BodyProud Role Models to use their life and physical achievements to motivate others to improve their own. Donations received through the DFSA helps fund MMADE initiatives and puts extra spending money in the hands of participating natural athletes.

"I AM BODYPROUD" TRANSFORMATION FUND: Everyone, whether they believe it or not, has the potential to be BodyProud! The DFSA is dedicates resources towards increasing awareness that being BodyProud is a state of mind, body, heart, and spirit that all of us can achieve. Educational seminars, workshops, special events, and appearances by BodyProud Role Models all make this possible. Plus, for all those who choose to "Take the BodyProud Challenge", and blog about their progressions and triumphs, can also apply for the "I AM BODYPROUD" Transformation Fund. Those selected, will have their hotel and/or travel costs compensated so that they can participate in the BodyProud Showcase to celebrate their triumphs with the world!
