Who it helps and why
The project promotes equity by providing a safe and reliable space where children, teens, families, seniors and adults from all backgrounds can participate in sports, develop healthy lifestyles, and build positive relationships. Many families in the community rely on the public community center because private gyms and sports programs are too expensive. Repairing the gym floor and divider ensures these opportunities remain available to everyone, regardless of income or background.
