Alexander was involved in supporting a number of charities. In Saint Lucia, the country Alexander represented in his playing days, he established the Sacred Sports Foundation www.sacredsportsinc.com to help increase sporting opportunities for St Lucian children. The Foundation continues to thrive under the stewardship of his brother Delroy and sister Nova, which have continued to build on the legacy started by Keith. The Sacred Sports Foundation has received grants from the European Union, Australia Government and UNESCO, for a range of sports development and education programmes. The Foundation also has a partnership with the St. Lucia Football Association www.saintluciafa.com.
