Elijah decided early on that he was most at home on a football field. Recently, Elijah has been selected to attend a new, state-of-the-art performance academy in Springfield, Virginia. The coaches, teachers, and performance specialists are top-notch. Elijah will have the opportunity to work alongside high-schoolers, even though he will be in 8th grade. The team will be participating in international tournaments as well as local invitational events. But I can't provide him with this opportunity without your help. He has earned a $10,000 scholarship/financial aid package, but I'm still a long way off.
