Atletris Cox

Founder & President

Atletris Cox is the founder and president of Parker Promise Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding access to career opportunities through CDL training and workforce development. The organization focuses on helping single mothers and individuals reentering society overcome barriers to employment and build stable, independent futures.

With a strong background in logistics and business operations, Atletris has owned and operated a logistics company since 2020. Through her experience in the transportation industry, she has developed firsthand knowledge of the career opportunities available through commercial driving and the importance of providing access to training and employment pathways within this field.

Driven by a deep commitment to community empowerment, Atletris established Parker Promise Foundation to help individuals gain the skills, support, and opportunities needed to achieve long-term economic stability. Her work focuses on creating programs that provide access to CDL training, mentorship, and career placement support for individuals seeking a second chance.

The inspiration for the foundation comes from the life and legacy of her late mother, Margaret Denise Parker, whose compassion, strength, and dedication to helping others left a lasting impact on her family and community. After her mother's passing in 2024, Atletris created the foundation to honor her memory and continue the spirit of service, encouragement, and generosity that she embodied.

Through Parker Promise Foundation, Atletris is committed to building stronger communities by opening doors to meaningful careers, promoting economic empowerment, and helping individuals create brighter futures for themselves and their families.
