We are requesting support to provide volleyball practice shirts for our girls' volleyball team to ensure that every athlete has the proper uniform needed to play safely and confidently. Participation in sports like volleyball has a powerful impact on the mental health of female athletes—boosting self-esteem, reducing stress, and fostering a sense of belonging and teamwork. For many of our players, volleyball is more than just a game; it's a source of emotional support, resilience, and personal growth. By helping us provide essential equipment, you are not only supporting athletic performance but also investing in the mental well-being and empowerment of young women in our community.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
