My passion is helping people. Whether it's volunteering my time, raising money for cancer research, donating money to people in need, providing clothing and food to the less fortunate, or contributing financially to a meaningful fundraising event, I do as much as I can to give back.
During this holiday season, together with the LinkedIn for Good #GivingTuesday program, I'd like to give back to the school that gave so much to me - Amador Valley High School (AVHS). AVHS is now giving to my daughter Maddie (a sophomore) and next year, my younger daughter Mia will enter AVHS.
I benefited greatly from the opportunities presented to me at Amador. AVHS gave to me academically and through another passion of mine - sports and being an athlete. I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to play several sports at AVHS including volleyball, basketball, soccer, and track & field. In college, I played volleyball and track & field. I have a life time of amazing memories created with my fellow teammates, their friends and family, coaches and the community that supported us. My mentors and those who guided me were my teachers and coaches.
I believe that sports can be a very important element to helping children grow up well rounded. Our children playing sports will experience the joy and hardship of teamwork, learn to respect authority and rules, understand the importance of discipline, build relationships, study hard to keep up their grades, have fun, and get exercise.
In high school sports at AVHS today, a fee is due from each athlete to fund the programs. It is not mandatory because it can't be by regulation but it is needed to support the program. Without the fee, sporting programs may not be sustainable. Unfortunately, sports can be costly - equipment, uniforms, transportation, tournament fees, etc. add up quickly. While public funding has been cut, I'd like to raise money for the AVHS Athletic Boosters (girls softball program or a sport of your choice) to help sustain the athletic programs and give children the opportunity to experience a high school sport and be a member of the team. Go Dons! Thank you for your support!
