Thank you for your generous donation in support of the TimeOut 4Africa Education and Sports Foundation. We have good news to share with you!
In November during the clinic week, We identified about 40 school boys of the ages between 9 - 12 years, to join our juniors elite team. These kids meet once a month with local coaches and some few volunteer parents to work on both life and basketball skills. We are happy to inform everyone the we see tremendous improvement on and off the basketball courts. During the month of August we ran clinics and matches for the kids and at the end selected the best 12 players. These 12 players will represent Minna in the upcoming inter city championship.
We are also very happy to tell everyone that another student, Gideon, from our program has arrived in New Mexico, USA to attend junior college on an athletic scholarship. We will keep you informed on his progress in his school work and his performance with the school basketball team.
Thanks again for helping us extend our work to reach more kids this year. You are helping us to change the lives of children and families.
