Student athletes at Rich Middle School will gain a
competitive edge thanks to a $1,000 Thomas R. Brown Athletics Grant from
California Casualty. The funds will be
used towards new volleyball uniforms.
Principal Kip Motta says the funds will help attract more students to
the program, enabling them to learn life lessons of teamwork, perseverance and
self-confidence.
Rich Middle School is one of 79 public schools in 33 states
receiving a total of $83,000. Since its
creation in 2011, more than $580,000 has been awarded to 500 athletic programs
across the nation. The grant is named
after California Casualty Chairman Emeritus Thomas R. Brown, who is a champion
of helping more student athletes learn valuable lessons that carry to other
aspects of life.
