Dear Friends and Family,

I have started this page in an effort to raise money for Ignite A Dream’s soccer and tennis program. I have had the unique opportunity to have been involved with this phenomenal organization, as the Director of Athletic Programs. Currently, we are working with East Austin College Prep Academy (6th grade charter school - SW Key Programs), by providing both a weekly soccer and tennis program. We also have been able to provide the  participating students with brand new soccer balls, tennis rackets, t shirts, and are now in the process of working on footwear and jerseys. We also have been able to put together field trips for these children as well, showing them truly where sports combined with an education can take you. We also have a tennis program that we provide at Austin CAN Academy. Both of these schools provide education to socio economically underprivileged families.  

My goal is to raise sufficient funds, so that we may continue to provide these type of quality programs to other at risk kiddos in Austin. We would like to continue these programs through the Summer as well as add another group/ school to our programs. We are asking for $5 donations in hopes that we will reach our goal by June 1, 2010.

Thank you so much for your support, and please please forward this to anyone that you think might be interested!
