I'd Like to Buy the World a Ping Pong Table
Funded Sep 10, 2024Your incredible generosity will not go unreturned--get it, like in table tennis, return?!
Our table tennis club prides itself on friendship, scholarship, and sportsmanship that gets carried out into our school community through recreation, now a complete possibility because of you.
With our new table and covers, we will truly shine as a team.
Thank you so much!”
With gratitude,

Ping Pong A Palooza
Funded Aug 30, 2013Your generosity has had tremendous impact. The after school club was among the most popular offerings of our PTA sponsored programs. Kids were rarely absent on the day of ping pong, and when they were, I received apologetic emails from parents! Kids have signed out paddles to practice at home. Many students and parents have expressed interest in signing up for the Spring's club.
One of the tables has been set up in my classroom since it was delivered, and my room has never been neater! It gets use during choice time, or an occasional pick up staff game after dismissal. Its presence makes everyone take a turn! And it makes everyone cheer for everyone else. Beyond skill improvement, this game and its equipment has provided mood improvement. What's not to love about a ping pong table in a learning environment?
This game has had a healing presence for one student who has to move unexpectedly in the middle of the school year. The parent has requested suggestions for brand names of table tennis equipment, because she would like to purchase one for the new home to extend the continuity of having had one in the classroom.
Thank you so much.”
