My Project
Since coming back to my old high school to help coach football, I’ve seen this program evolve in amazing ways. A team that once struggled to finish a season now has over 50 dedicated student-athletes — many earning academic scholarships and growing as leaders in and out of the classroom. Their commitment is real, and their work ethic shows up every day.
To keep pushing forward, we’re requesting a set of footballs and protein shakes.
More footballs allow players to get more individual reps and maximize every minute of practice. The shakes provide essential post-workout recovery — especially important for building stronger muscle and preparing the body for 14 weeks of intense competition.
In the past, our school has seen a high number of injuries. One of the best ways to prevent this is through proper recovery and nutrition. Most of our athletes don’t have easy access to that after training sessions. These shakes give them the fuel they need to stay healthy, grow stronger, and keep performing at their best.
Our athletes show up early, stay late, and give everything they’ve got. With your support, we can continue building a program that not only competes but develops strong, healthy, confident young leaders.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
