What is the Goal at True Blue?
Our goal is to help as many kids stay active and build confidence on and off the court. For some people sports/Basketball is a way of expressing themselves and here at True Blue Workouts we like to provide a court where mistakes are welcomed and encouraged because that means you are pushing yourself to get better. “If you don’t lose the ball you don’t get better”. I am not your coach, most likely, so I don’t control your playing time, just work hard and keep pushing yourself to get better. I promise I will push you to be better, and definitely get you to fail, so you can get back up and prove you can succeed. That’s what we are here for to help you become more than just a better basketball player, but a leader as well and maybe one day you will reach out and teach some one your own version in whatever it will be that you love to do, because that’s True Blue. We are all in it together.
True Blue Gives Back Project
I’m extremely excited to announce our first “Reach One” Community Project. This summer when I found some free time outside of work, I trained kids in exchange for donations. That total came to $1,140.
I realized that maybe I am helping these kids but what else can I do? TBW’s very first give back project is going to Africa to build two basketball hoops and a court. Thanks to Kijani Farm and Global Outreach this is going to be possible. We will leave in February of 2020 and will be there for two weeks. While we are there, besides building a court we will also be helping in any other way we can along with playing futbol and other games with the kids. For me, basketball was more than just a game, I found a family, a community within it. It may sound crazy to some but I hope to bring more than just a game to Africa, I hope to bring a strength in community with True Blue, and maybe some joy to kids who have a passion to play.
That first $1140 has gone to starting up this give back project, and we’re still looking to fundraise to see how much we can build/and help out the community before we leave in February. Closer to home, I have ideas for the MKE and surrounding areas as well a goal of finding a permanent Gym/Home for TBW. Right now this is our journey, and I am not here to beg for your money, but if you feel a passion to help and like what we are doing here at TBW please feel free to donate to us. ALL PROCEEDS GO TO THIS PROJECT, I will show you everything that is used with the donations, just check in on the website.
