Boxing for Physical, Mental, and Emotional Health!
Funded Jan 25, 2024I wanted to say a big thank you for your kindness and for believing in us! I work with students from low-income households, so getting into kickboxing outside of school is usually too expensive for them.
The students have been super excited about the new gear you helped us buy. With the Thai pads, we've been able to learn new moves like the knee, the roundhouse kick, and the switch kick, stuff we couldn't do before.
Our kickboxing classes have been really great for the kids. They've gained confidence, learned how to stay focused, and have learned to respect each other's abilities. Plus, it's been a chance for them to make friends and work together.
None of this would have been possible without your help! So, thank you from all of us!”

Funded Jan 7, 2013Thank you all for making this possible for my students! You are the reason that my students will be able to do physical fitness activities. Our school is in a very high-needs area where many of these students would not otherwise get the opportunity to do activities outside of our school. Its really great to see the smiles on my students faces when they found out that we are getting fitness equipment. I say it many times to people, our middle school students might look grown but they're not. They are still a kids inside and get excited to try new experiences .
With the small gym that our high-rise building has, it's difficult to play sports and are limited to the physical fitness exercises; the equipment that you have funded will make it safe and fun for all these children to become physically fit and to stay healthy! Thank you again!”
