Meridian, ID Grades 6-8

My Project

My students need badminton rackets, pickleball paddles, and other P.E. equipment. I love to help kids enjoy fitness and give them reason to come to school, enjoy it, and create lasting memories! P.E. gives kids a constructive outlet for stress, especially important for those growing up in difficult circumstances. When they see progress—like running farther, lifting more, or improving a skill—it builds resilience and self-belief. Sports can help kids make friends, find mentors, and feel part of a community. Lifetime sports often encourage participation over competition, which means kids can join in without fear of being “cut” from a team. That inclusivity is huge for kids who may already feel left out in other parts of life.
