DONATE

You can help us continue to progress toward our vision and mission.

We do most of these organically funded functions outside of where most of you play with us.

Help us resource and continue the following efforts:

  • Scholarships providing access to learning and accomplishment programs with tuition, snacks, racquets, and balls for needy families. ($100 – $300 per player)
  • Tennis equipment for programs in non-standard locations such as parking lots, hallways, playgrounds, and streets. ($200 to $400 per site)
  • Court and space rental ($20 to $50 per hour per court/space)
  • Consultation and workshops for PE teachers to implement racquet sports into PE class. ($300 to $500 per day)
  • Parent education ($30 to $60 per hour)
  • Coaching for underprivileged or under-resourced groups ($40 to $200 per hour)
  • Tennis ball recycling support: packaging, and shipping ($20 – $30 per 200 ball bin)
  • Tennis ball recycling support: labor (1/2 to 1 labor-hour per bin)
  • Tennis ball recycling support: start-up cost for scaling to additional sites ($300 per site)
  • COVID: Masks, sanitizers, distancing aids and training ($20 to $100 per site per season)
  • Administration of scholarships, equipment, rentals, workshops, programs, and recycling ($ priceless)

We’ve almost doubled the number of balls we recycled each year for 3 years in a row, passing 10,000 in 2021. And then about 10,000 more in the next 2 years. We cannot grow and may struggle to sustain the current level without additional resources.

While tennis boomed overall in the pandemic, opportunities for the underprivileged waned. We’ve seen a rise in scholarship needs.

Charitable contributions fell sharply in 2018 with the new tax code.  Since then the pandemic strained economy hasn’t helped things either.   Every charitable service and the items needed to fulfill the missions have been inflated since 2021.

Please help us continue to reach out with continued enrichment to the community.
