Building a Program

My Students

I am the school counselor at a PK-12 school. I have the opportunity to work with children from the time they enter school to the time they graduate. There are about 200 kids in the school. It's a small, close-knit school with amazing children. In addition to being the school counselor, I am the girls' varsity basketball coach.

We have girls who are very passionate about basketball.

Our numbers are low, and we are looking to build our program up to allow our students to be able to keep playing the sport they love.

My Project

Our school currently does not have enough players to have a Varsity and Junior varsity team. With some more equipment and tools, we are hoping to instill the love of basketball in more students. Sports teach students valuable lessons. Without these sports, there are many students who miss out on valuable experiences.

These hard-working young ladies will use this equipment to help build a struggling basketball program.

My students/players have the drive to increase their basketball skills. They are willing to work hard in order to improve, but they some equipment to help improve their skills. I am asking for some basketball training aids, two weighted trainer balls and two Basketball Defender Dummy Trainers.

Some kids need sports in their lives so please consider donating and helping my kids.
