Support Lincoln Lancers Volleyball

Donation protected
I am proud to be the coach of the Abraham Lincoln Lancers volleyball team.  This is my 5th year coaching at ALHS.  At Lincoln our goal is to foster an environment of high expectations that will empower students
to become responsible citizens, achieve their goals, and reach their fullest potential for career
and college readiness in every class, every day.  

I truly believe that being involved in athletics aids in our student's success.  Overall in Denver Public Schools students who participate in athletics have a gpa that is one full point higher than their peers (3.2 avg for student athletes).  However, school money is tight and athletic and extracurriculars are feeling the effects more than others.  This is why I am asking for your help. 

Our students live in a high poverty area of Denver.  Many of our students are on free or reduced lunches.  Many of our athletes work full time jobs, go to school full time, and still manage to commit themselves to our team.  For many being involved in high school sports is the consistency in their life and gives them the opportunity to work hard at something they enjoy.

We are raising funds in order to provide them with adequate equipment that they can instill some school pride as well as pride in themselves.  Many of our lower level uniforms are stained and mismatched.  A lot of our equipment is out dated and used.  We also travel a lot during the season and so far our amazing coaching staff has stepped up to the plate providing sandwiches for our athletes so they have a dinner.  However, that is something we can't expect them to provide each and every time.  

Your support will ensure that our athletes are able to feel confident when they step out on the court, have access to a quality experience, and have food in their stomachs before they are asked to compete at a high level.  Many of you have been part of an athletic team that has made a difference in your life, I ask you to help make a difference in someone elses life.  Thank you.
