My Project
Imagine, you stay after school and put in the time for conditioning. Then come to school to put in the work to make the grade in class. After school, you then pour your heart and soul into practice. Only to get to game day to find out your uniforms are so thin you can see through them and half the numbers are cracked and faded.
If you look good you feel good and if you feel good you play well.
This is where I need your help. With all of the barriers our students face basketball provides an outlet for them to succeed. It is a place where they can grow into future young ladies who will lead the school and community. That can all be destroyed by looking like every stereotype of an urban kid with their uniforms. Please help me provide uniforms for our girls' basketball team that they can wear with pride and confidence. Help them gain the many valuable life lessons you gain from high school sports.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
