Fresh Start for Our Volleyball Season

Help me give my students a fresh start playing the sport they love!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Altieri's classroom raised $537

This project is fully funded

My Students

I am a Varsity Volleyball coach, and I am requesting practice volleyballs for our players to use, both in preparation for and throughout the season.

It’s been over 1,000 days, and my athletes are finally playing volleyball indoors.

Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the team didn’t get to play in the fall of 2020, and had to play outdoors from April-June 2021. Although the girls were happy to play, we ruined almost every practice and game ball.

My players also help students at the intermediate school level for service credit. The young ladies like giving back to their communities as well as the intermediate schools they previously attended.

My Project

I am a Varsity Volleyball coach, and I am requesting specific volleyballs for our players to use, both in preparation for and throughout the season.

My female athletes can grow both individually and as a team, if we have the tools for success there's nothing we can't do!

My students love volleyball but because of the pandemic, many of our volleyball were ruined because we had to outside last season. They work hard and have a new found love for the game! My team plays as much volleyball as they can, including many nights over the summer, as well as the winter.

My players also help students at the intermediate school level for service credit. The young ladies like giving back to their communities as well as the intermediate schools they previously attended.
