A Coach Who Believes in Us — Now It’s Our Turn to Believe in

Hi, my name is Grace Atkins, and I really need your help.

My tennis coach, Coach Medhi, is one of the best people I’ve ever met. He moved here all by himself from Morocco to work and send money to his mom, who is terminally ill. He doesn’t have much, but he always shows up for us, smiles, and makes us believe in ourselves. A few weeks ago, something terrible happened — someone stole his car with all his tennis racquets and everything he needs inside.

He lost everything he uses to teach us.

I can’t even explain how sad and unfair this is for him. He didn’t deserve such bad luck. He’s trying so hard just to take care of his mom and do good things here.

Please, if you can, even just a little bit, help Coach Medhi get back on his feet. He would never ask for help himself, but he really, really needs it right now. Thank you so much for caring.
