My Project

Our young men are from a crime-infested area of the city with very few positive influences. However, they are some of the most dedicated players that I have had the privilege of coaching in years. They have faced adversities as teammates. Several of them continue to face personal traumas. This is a true test of our team's dedication to becoming better athletes.

By providing our team with hydrating drinks, such as Powerade and Gatorade, our student-athletes safely participate in Spring soccer training.

Your contributions demonstrate that someone else truly cares about their well-being. Our team has continued to triumph, as they face adversities.
