Our First Partnership
As I have talked about this idea with people I know, there have been a few who have immediately jumped in with both feet and volunteered to partner with us as either a supported charity or a fund raising partner.
The first to make it official is Bridge Volleyball Club of San Diego. Headquartered in Chula Vista, Bridge is the result of the vision of Hawley Woods-Gray, a close friend of ours. She is a great example of a successful, athletic woman who chose to make a difference in her community doing something she loves - coaching volleyball. Bridge obviously focuses on skill development and all that goes along with any sport, but what really sets Hawley and her collection of coaches apart is their dedication to developing young adults rather than just athletes. With her experience as a collegiate volleyball player Hawley is very effective in guiding her players through the college selection and scholarship processes, making college more attainable for many of her players.

Thanks Hawley! You rock!

Thank you Jeff, we look forward to fostering a program that will give you access to our student/athletes so you can work with them on financial literacy. This will support them on many levels, especially to understand the value of tithing and saving. My hope is that our partnership will lead to another level of leadership amongst the youth we work with in our club.
