My Students

Our students are all middle school girls who are passionate about soccer. At our school we have an established boys soccer team, however, there is no official girls team... YET! Seeing this lack of a program, I have set out to raise money to support and create our own girls soccer team.

Twentieth-century girls need to have a space where they can play, succeed, make mistakes, and overall feel supported.

We are striving to make that happen with our girls soccer team. There will be two coaches, myself, and our wonderful PE teacher will run the program in coordination with our after-school program.

Please help make our girls soccer dreams a reality!

My Project

By donating money to our cause you are helping us purchase what our girls need to be successful soccer players! Your donation will help supply our students with cleats, uniforms, balls, gloves, and snacks. These materials will make a huge difference in our students' lives. Many are not able to afford the athletic gear and equipment necessary to play soccer.

Your donation will give students the opportunity to not be confined by monetary restrictions.

Our students will be able to focus SOLELY on soccer and NOT on ALL of the money it takes to make this team happen. Our students want to become dedicated athletes and you can help them on their journey to becoming soccer pros!
