My Project

Please help us get basketballs for our little hoopsters. Currently, we have a lot of standard sized basketballs, but we do not have enough youth-sized basketballs for our little kiddos.

Youth basketballs are smaller and more lightweight, which makes it easier for the little kids to dribble, catch and shoot with proper form.

I am asking for donations so that I can start my youth basketball unit in November. Any amount you can donate will be greatly appreciated by the PC students! Let's give our little kiddos something to get excited about.
