The power of community and sports 🧡

We’re in awe of the generosity, determination, and spirit of James River High School Powderpuff! The incredible efforts of Ellie, Leah, Taylor, and their community through their school’s legacy capstone project raised over $7,600 for Sportable. Powderpuff creates a fun, exciting, and team empowering atmosphere that has become a tradition.
