My Students

I coach a High School Varsity lacrosse team. The players are an amazing group of very diverse young women from all walks of life that range from 9th to 12th grade. They have a high collective GPA, many take multiple AP, dual credit, and/or honors classes, and are heavily involved in campus and community service programs.

This year, several of my players are eligible for All-League, Academic All-American, and/or National Merit Scholarships, true scholar-athletes!

They are also very involved in extracurricular activities like Robotics, Science Research, National Honor Society, and MUN. These young ladies are going places, and I feel playing lacrosse is a great opportunity for our students to grow as young women.

My Project

Your kind and generous donations will help my lacrosse team by providing them with a new set of uniforms for away games. These young ladies will be so excited to have new unifoms to replace the current ones, some of which are over 7 years old and the waist bands no longer keep the skirts up, are stained and showing their age.

Our team worked so hard last year only to have the season cut short by COVID-19.

We want ALL students to excel both academically and athletically, however, there are fewer and fewer funds available to provide our students with the equipment and uniforms they need. Thanks to you, our athletes will be playing proud and looking good! Thank you for your continued support!
