Boston United Girls Volleyball

Help me give my students the equipment needed for a successful volleyball season!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pratt's classroom raised $1,142

This project is fully funded

My Project

The Boston United girls volleyball program is a newer, developing program made up of three Boston Public Schools. Last season (2024-25) was our first Varsity season; we tied first place in our division and qualified and competed in both the City and State tournaments! We're looking to continue to build up our Varsity program with our middle school and JV teams, but need help funding equipment. Along with traditional volleyball equipment, the added resource of an iPad and tripod will allow us to analyze practice and game film, both individually and as a team, to optimize skill development and volleyball IQ.

With this project, we're hoping to grow the sport, provide more opportunities for our students to develop, and hopefully seal our first championship!

Long term, we would love to see our kids develop enough that they have the opportunity to compete at the next level after high school. Our kids are amazing, hard-workers and deserve the very best!
