Road to the Little League Jrs World Series
Tax deductible
Dear Community Supporter,
After three sons and 15+ years of Little League, I thought my time as a volunteer coach was over. In January, multiple kids and parents reached out to make one last run for the Little League World Series. This time in the Juniors Division.
The request was compelling. The Juniors Division is a high school prep program for 13-14 year olds. The boys desperately wanted a chance to compete in the Little League World Series after COVID robbed them of the opportunity two years ago.
Our Summerlin South Juniors All Stars swept through Districts last month, and the team starts the State tournament this week. These 14 boys have worked their butts off practicing and training all summer, and now they’re tasked with fundraising for Regionals in Bend, OR and the Juniors World Series in Taylor, MI.
Unfortunately, the Juniors World Series does not play in Williamsport, and even worse, Little League does not help with funding like they do for the 12 year olds. We’re estimating a budget of $40,000 to send our players and coaches to Regionals in Bend, OR from 8/3-8/11.
Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. We are a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization if that helps. Please feel free to call me with any questions. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Respectfully,
Rex Kim
