Story
In partnership with the Santee School District, we’re seeking support to help a local student attend summer volleyball camps. The hope is to have the student enrolled in summer volleyball camps to support her social, emotional and behavioral learning over the summer. This student has struggled with attendance due to bullying and social skill development. The student expressed a desire to learn how to play volleyball. They believe by providing her with this opportunity to meet other local teens, learn new skills and have fun this summer she will gain much needed self-esteem and confidence skills that will support her as she transitions to her 8th grade school year. The student currently lives with her grandmother. One parent resides out of state, and the other lives in a different area of San Diego, limiting her support network. Given her circumstances, we are seeking assistance to cover the full cost of enrollment in all three volleyball camps, totaling $600.00. The first camp ($200) begins next week on June 16th, and we are hopeful that with support, we can get her enrolled in time.
