My Project

My second grade class loves playing soccer at recess. Unfortunately, we are currently using trash cans as goal posts and only have a couple old soccer balls. Please help give our recess a much needed rehabilitation with new nets and balls and a storage rack to hold everything in place!

Youth participation in sports plays a vital role in holistic development, contributing to physical, mental, and social well-being.

Involvement in sports promotes physical fitness, enhances cognitive abilities, and develops key life skills such as teamwork and leadership. Additionally, it offers a constructive outlet for emotions, boosts self-esteem, and encourages a healthy lifestyle.
