coachderek@letsgivethemashot.org The purpose of Let's Give Them a Shot is to make a difference in the lives of underprivileged children. The vision for the program is to teach fundamental sports instruction to children in areas where at-risk kids would otherwise not have the means to participate in this type of class.We use sports, competition and positive reinforcement as a vehicle to teach valuable life lessons and basic values such as self-esteem, compassion, teamwork and community.
