Help Us Empower Essex County Youth Through Tennis & Education!

Dear Tennis Friends,

This summer, Essex Grassroots Tennis & Education (EGTE) is hosting our 2025 Summer Camp July 7-August 22, to serve over 100 underserved youth across East Orange, Newark, Orange, and Irvington, and we need your help to make it possible!

For just $5,000, we can provide:

• Quality tennis instruction from certified coaches

• Academic enrichment in STEM, reading, and life skills

• Healthy snacks, water, and daily essentials

• Equipment, T-shirts, and safe community play spaces

Since 2016, EGTE has used tennis as a bridge to confidence, education, and opportunity. The photos here say it all: smiles, focus, and joy on the court.

Your donation helps children like these discover their potential both as athletes and scholars.

No donation is too small. Every dollar brings us closer to a summer of growth, learning, and fun for the kids who need it most.

On behalf of EGTE Board members, thank you in advance for helping make tennis accessible to the youth we serve.

Let’s serve up opportunity together.

Thank you for supporting the future.

Best Wishes From Board Members,

Angela Lin,President
