About:
Each year, our school participates in a self-created program that is designed to give back to our community and make Christmas the best it can possibly be for some of our own. The Letchworth Varsity Boys’ Basketball team chose four children in our community to provide a brighter Christmas for. These young men teamed up, went shopping together and wrapped gifts together. They had a great time doing something for someone else off the basketball court. They found a new way to bond as one and think about the bigger picture.
Not seen in photos is how this same group of young men volunteered each Saturday morning throughout basketball season to give back to our youth basketball program. Their time was spent lead skills and drills, coaching small-sided games and refereeing 3rd and 4th grade league games.
