Welcome to the Kern Athletic Fencing Foundation's About page!
At KAFF, we believe that classical fencing is not only a fun and exciting activity but also a valuable tool for promoting physical and mental well-being. Our private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) foundation is dedicated to providing the youth of Kern County with a safe and empowering environment where they can develop discipline, resilience, and confidence through the sport of fencing.
