Hi Everyone,

I’m reaching out as a proud mom who believes in the power of perseverance, community, and opportunity.

My son Matthew is a dedicated basketball player at Miami Springs Senior High School. He’s a versatile combo guard who plays with heart, hustle, and determination. This school gave him a chance to shine, and under a coach who leads with patience and discipline, Matthew has grown tremendously—on and off the court.

But this season hasn’t been easy. Matthew faced ankle and knee injuries, yet he never gave up. He worked tirelessly through recovery, showed up to every practice, and supported his team no matter what. His resilience inspires me every single day.

Unfortunately, like many public-school programs, the basketball team struggles with limited funding. That’s why I started this fundraiser—to help cover essential costs like:

✅ Uniforms

✅ Tournament travel

✅ Equipment upgrades

✅ Therapy and recovery resources

✅ Resources that allow these young athletes to reach their full potential

If you know Matthew, you know how much this means to him. And if you believe in the power of sports to build character, confidence, and community, I hope you’ll join us in making a difference.

Every donation—big or small—helps these athletes chase their dreams.

If you can’t contribute financially, please share this campaign with friends, family, or anyone who believes in giving kids a chance to succeed.

Together, we can help Matthew and his team keep their basketball dreams alive!

Thank you for supporting Matthew and the Miami Springs basketball family!
