My Project

We have the people to lead the volleyball club, the space in which to play, and the volleyball nets. We have enthusiastic students who want to learn the game. Now, all we need are enough volleyballs for everyone to get optimal practice time as they develop their volleyball skills.

Can you help us by supplying nice, new volleyballs for our students as they prepare to attend this exciting after-school sports activity?

We are so thankful for the volunteers who want to help lead our volleyball club and we'd like to make their work easier by providing them with good sports equipment.
