My Project
As a coach for a baseball team, having a new baseball bat will come in handy in our everyday routine. There are several students on the varsity team that were lacking this resource. You and I both know that a bat is almost the most essential thing to a baseball player.
As we start off our 2025 season, my students have renewed their energies and strength.
This contribution will shout compassion, having this new baseball bat. We are currently off to a great start for the season, and have great goals and dreams to achieve throughout the year. Thank you for making this possible for us. You will impact our lives more than you can imagine.
