Meet Marcus. He may be a professional tennis pro who regularly rubs elbows with the likes of Federer and Nadal, but that's not how he wants to be remembered. As the founder of High Impact Athletes, he's challenging his fellow athletes to connect with their favorite missions and join him pledging 10% of their annual earnings to those causes. His life goal: to create a movement in the sporting world where athletes can maximize their position of power to influence good. Three cheers for this👏👏👏🎾
