Why My Job Matters...

I just want to take a minute and say thank you to the members of the Idaho Tennis Foundation. Their efforts to provide financial assistance to kids participating in Tennis Is Elementary programs around the valley makes a tremendous difference. Today I got to inform a mother that her son is going to get the opportunity to play tennis that he has been so desperate for. This opportunity would not have been possible if Idaho Tennis Foundation was not here. Hearing the excitement in her voice when she said she couldn't wait to tell her son this afternoon just validated the importance of my job and what we as a whole at Idaho Tennis are doing to grow the game. Tennis is not a sport for just the rich, the poor, the young or the old. Tennis is GLOBAL! Every child should have the opportunity, regardless of circumstance, to try something that could turn into a passion for life. If you love tennis, I encourage you to support it. You can make a donation to the Idaho Tennis Foundation simply by clicking here. Every dollar works to put racquets in kids' hands and develop the next generation of lifelong tennis players.
