Creating Amazing Volleyball Players

Help me give my students new volleyballs; it's the number #1 sport played before school and during lunch.

My Project

At our school we have over 500 students in our PE program each semester and desperately need new Volleyballs. We are limited to how much we can play due to not having enough Volleyballs. Currently the ones we do use have holes in their exterior shell, and are literally coming apart.

New Volleyballs would help us grow our Volleyball unit and help create Volleyball Champions.

We will use these Volleyballs to help our students learn the skills, and techniques needed to play Volleyball, before school, During lunch, during school Volleyball season and after school on their own.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.

More than half of students from low‑income households
