We've raised $108,685 in 15 hours. Join us Dec 4th when we give away our next $10K!
Our Q3 2018 recipient is Norwalk Grassroots Tennis & Education Association nominated by Caron Palder.
How the funds will be used
The mission of Norwalk Grassroots Tennis & Education (NGTE) is to build strength of character and a foundation for success through tennis and education. Our goal is to ensure each of our kids is on a path towards success on the court, in the classroom and in life.
Norwalk Grassroots Tennis & Education will use the money they receive from 100WC to support the addition of another staff person to help in the education space. This will enable us to provide more support for each child who comes into our youth center.
