FIVE PROJECT QUESTIONS Required (60 - 90 minutes)

2. Who gains the most? 
Lower income families benefit the most from opportunities to participate in sports that were previously priced out of reach. As a means for people to acquire quality sporting gear at a fair price and also resell under-used items, we increase access to a range of athletic activities regardless of socioeconomic status. This improved access to sporting equipment will be reflected in increased health, social and psychological benefits for children and adults for whom the cost of gear is prohibitive.
