"Better Choices for a Brighter Future"
Thimsha (Valley) Youth Sports is a non-profit organization established in1999.
We currently have over 150 boys and girls between the ages 5 and15 from the
San Fernando Valley community participating in our program. The main
objective is to teach these children self-discipline, self-respect, pride, honesty,
loyalty and how to work together through physical fitness and sports. We
have seen many kids changed for the better a s they have participated in our
program and several of them have stayed with sports all the way through
college. However, we are currently limited to the number of kids we can
accept into our program. Our desire is to expand our program to reach more
children in our community and to install characteristics necessary to be
successful, productive, and healthy adults, which in turn empowers the family,
keeps kids off the street, and encourage the circulation of monies three
times in our community before it leaves. Currently, our community has High
Schools participating in youth sports that have a very high concentration of
youth sports. Our schools are over crowded and t he activities to the youth are
very limited. There is a serious need for more Youth Programs and facilities
in our community. With the expansion of the Valley Conference, we plan
to integrate with other ongoing programs within the community the state, and
the nation. We also plan to develop special events, volunteer participation,
government relation, parent involvement, interfacing with local schools,
health, safety, computer literacy, child care, and good citizenship. We plan
to work in conjunction with the schools and community throughout is
development. Thimsha (Valley) Youth Sports wants input from all of our parents,
grandparents, and our local businesses as well. In order for Thimsha (Valley)
Youth Sports to successfully meet it's expansion a development plans we will
need to acquire some land in our community. A building technical assistance,
and equipment for our Sports Programs. As expansion continues we would like
to get involved in sports such as, football, baseball, boxing, hockey, golf, and
literacy programs such as reading, computers and training. Programs will also
consist of mentoring, such as Big Brothers and community dads/grandpas, and
our good citizens programs: graffiti removal, tree planting, and neighborhood
watch. We are asking that any and everyone who has an interest in the future of
our children to assist us in obtaining the aforementioned items and achieving our
goals for this program. All donations 7 are tax deductible and we at Thimsha
(Valley) Youth Sports feel there is no greater return in you investment than
seeing a child succeed and reach his / her full potential! Together, we can
make a difference.
Thank you for taking the time to consider our request.
