About this fundraiser

We want to tell you why the Downstate Boys Volleyball program is awesome!

Downstate keeps kids active and promotes authentic engagement in an increasingly digital world. The boys and their coaches dedicate countless hours each week to practices, weight training, and skill lessons to perfect their skills and grow as a team. The kids thrive in a safe and encouraging environment. Kids who struggle in their school settings, get a fresh start at Downstate, where they are included, appreciated, and supported. Social anxiety, increasingly common in our youth, is replaced with self-confidence and pride. As teammates bond and become essential collaborators towards the team's success, they thrive with a sense of camaraderie, accomplishment, and self-assurance.

Downstate athletes' commitment to inspired action goes way beyond the gym through regular volunteer and community service activities that instill solidarity, reciprocity, and collaboration as they serve their community.

After an outstanding season of growth and success, the team has a big chance to participate in the Nationals in Orlando!

June 30-July 3, 2025

We’re reaching out for your support to help us get them there.

The boys are super excited to participate at such high level of competition! Your donation will help cover airfares, meals, lodging, uniforms, and training opportunities.

Thank you for helping them get to Orlando!

GO Downstate!
