Our Volunteers
HTW Care-Kits would only be possible with the work of our exceptional volunteers. Lead by our events director Jazmin, thirty high school volunteers helped assemble our first YMCA care-kits.
Assembling Kits
Our dedicated volunteers begin by carefully assembling the kits, ensuring each item is thoughtfully included. They then take the time to create personalized, hand-written cards filled with encouragement and inspiration for our athletes, adding a heartfelt touch to every kit.
Our club leaders then visit the sports teams, delivering an engaging presentation on empowerment and the importance of building confidence both on and off the field. During these visits, they take the opportunity to connect personally with each of the girls.
