Words cannot express my gratitude for how quickly this project was funded, your donation did not only help Young athletes this season, but will continue to help them for seasons to come.\r\n\r\nThis year was the first year where I felt like our numbers really came back, we had 36 players in the program this year and I am only hoping that number will continue to grow next year. It is extremely powerful that I am able to tell the girls That you just need to show up and we will help you with everything else. I believe this makes playing a sport work accessible, and it opens the door for more athletes! \r\n\r\nWords cannot express my appreciation, thank you again.","fullyFundedDate":1754173853126,"projectUrl":"project/shield-our-shins-so-our-girls-can-play/9511172/","projectTitle":"Shield Our Shins!!

The joy on their faces when they picked up the new drumsticks was priceless! These drumsticks have transformed our general music classrooms from Kindergarten through the eighth grade, allowing students to fully engage in making music, exploring their individual creativity, and developing their musical independence.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and for making a difference in their lives.

After going through the nine essential skills, teaching has become so much easier. During covid, dysregulated student behavior went to new heights and saw many teachers leave the profession or retire.
