Our children dream big, and so do we. Thanks to your support over the last year, New York Junior Tennis & Learning was able to give the gift of character to many more children.
Our students endeavor to go to college, start careers, and enjoy life on and off the court. At the end of the year, we told you the story of 12-year-old Lonnie, who we presented with the Irwin Askenase Sportsmanship Award for his determination, moral character and teamwork.
Lonnie dreams of going to Stanford University – and because of your outpouring of support, his dreams seem much more within reach.
As we look back on a successful year, we also look ahead. In just a few months we will reach a milestone in our history – one that will broaden our reach and impact. It’s a monumental achievement – and there are many people to thank in the months ahead.
What this all means is that you are helping to grow young women and men with strong values who will go on to make real contributions in their communities and the world. So, on behalf of our Board, staff and volunteers, I want to start this season off by saying “Thank you!”
