Playing for Kids: Pickleball for Shriners
I’m Sal DeSantis, and I’m stepping onto the court because it feels like the right time in my life to give back. Playing pickleball with coworkers and friends is a chance to have fun, build camaraderie, and turn that energy into something that truly matters for children who need specialized care.

This April I’m tracking my minutes on Strava while I play to support Shriners Hospitals for Children. For more than 100 years, Shriners Children’s has provided innovative pediatric specialty care, research, and education, and they make sure families get the care they need regardless of ability to pay. Knowing my time on the court can help power their life-changing care makes every rally count.

I’m asking for your support to help children receive the treatments, therapy, and hope they deserve. Your gift goes directly to a nonprofit healthcare system that offers patient-centered services and relies on the generosity of people like you to keep care available to all families.

Please join me by donating today. Your contribution will help ensure more children receive the specialty care and support they need to thrive.

Swifties Supporting Shriners Children’s™
Supporting organizations that make a real difference is important to me, which is why I’m proud to be fundraising for Shriners Children’s™.

For more than 100 years, Shriners Children’s has provided life-changing pediatric specialty care, always putting kids first and never letting a family’s ability to pay or insurance status stand in the way of care.

This holiday season, donations are part of a special Holiday Match Challenge, meaning every gift can have three times the impact and help more children receive expert medical care, rehabilitation, and hope.

Thank you for supporting Shriners Children’s and helping them continue providing The Most Amazing Care Anywhere™!

They have locations across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, and also do outreach and telehealth to reach more kids.

By contributing to this fundraiser, you honor our love story while making a profound difference in the lives of children and families in need. Thank you for sharing in our joy and for your kind support!

The Grove S&C Turns 10!
Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

"As any parent will tell you there is nothing worse than watching your child experience pain, hurt or suffering. When my son, (Matt Groves) was just a baby learning how to walk I knew right away there was a problem. He would walk a few steps only to trip over his own feet and fall. Such a spunky little kid, he would get up and try again only to fall down again.

It was heartbreaking to watch. I could see there was something wrong with his feet and legs which caused him to continually trip and fall. After many doctor and specialists appointments, I finally came upon a doctor that identified an issue with his feet and hips. We were sent to Rhode Island Children’s Hospital for a thorough examination.

The doctor said my son’s feet and hips were not in the proper positions and he would need to wear leg braces in order to correct the problems. Think “Forest Gump” leg braces. The braces had to be custom made attached to hard shoes. As my son grew, that meant new shoes and new braces. Over time, I began to wonder why I wasn’t receiving any bills for his care or the leg braces. As it happened, Rhode Island Hospital approached the Shriners on our behalf.

When I didn’t have the resources for all the medical care my son needed, the Shriners were there. It was only through the generosity of the Shriners that my son was given all the help and care he needed.

For people who only know my son now, they probably can’t imagine him as a young child who had trouble walking and wore leg braces. For me, when I see him now as a strong man in a profession of strength and conditioning, I am in awe of what the child in braces can do now. ‘Thank you, Shriners, you will always hold a special place in my heart’.
