On Sunday, March 28th, KVA players are holding a “Serving Costa Rica” Servathon. We are accepting pledges for each serve one of our players serves. Would you consider supporting us in our endeavor to raise funds for this special missions trip. We are working hand in hand with Courts for Kids, a non-profit organization who goes to impoverished areas of the world and builds a multisport court. You can read more about our project below.

To make a pledge, please email Tawanna and let her know what your gift amount will be. For example, I will pay $1.00 for every serve made up to 25. You can mail a check made out to Courts for Kids. All checks made out to CFK are 100% tax deductible. Mail to the following address: 2211 Porter Rd, Katy, Tx. 77493.

Thank you for your consideration!

Costa de Pajaros is a small community on the Pacific side of Costa Rica, with about 6,000 residents, 43% of whom are under the age of 20. There is an elementary school that has been around since 1961 and a high school that was founded in 2004. As a community that requested a Peace Corps volunteer, it has numerous social problems such as alcoholism, drug addiction, domestic violence, school drop-out and unemployment. Also, the community has no form of recreation for the youth, which is what causes them to turn to drugs and alcohol. Last year there was a community survey where the question was posed “What is the most important area to develop in the community? The overwhelming response (50%) said recreation for the young people. The most important leaders of the community all support the creation of sports recreation for the youth, but due to the economic situation in the community, it is unrealistic for the project to come solely from within the community.

Please let us know if you are interested or have any questions. Email Tawanna here.
