Serving Up Hope at Evergreen Racquet Club returns for a weekend of fun, fellowship and great tennis.

Thanks to your support, young people in Uganda and across the U.S. are finding purpose and confidence through tennis, education and community.

Because of supporters like you:

  • 77 players in Uganda advanced their tennis skills, and eight now represent their country on the Uganda National Team.

  • 25 children in Uganda received full-time school tuition, opening doors to education and opportunity.

  • In the U.S., we launched new programs in Florida, Texas, California, Illinois and Arizona, where kids are making friends, getting active, and falling in love with tennis—proof that joy and connection truly change lives.

  • Our coach training model is expanding, enabling partner sites to launch and thrive sustainably.

These accomplishments belong to you, too. Every serve, every smile, every opportunity begins with someone’s belief — and you’ve shown that belief again and again.

Our Next Big Step: A Home for Hope in Uganda

As exciting as these opportunities have been, our greatest challenge — and greatest opportunity — remains in Uganda. We are within reach of completing our capital campaign to build a clubhouse on our property. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we have purchased an acre of land near our tennis facility, and our next step is to build our education center.

This space will become the heartbeat of our program: a safe place for children to learn, grow, and dream of brighter futures. It will serve as a classroom, a community center, and a lasting symbol of what’s possible when hope is given room to grow.

Your support during Serving Up Hope at Evergreen Racquet Club will help us:

  • Equip new players with rackets, balls and uniforms.

  • Support tuition and STEM learning for students in Uganda.

  • Train coaches and provide curriculum for U.S. partner sites.

  • Get us across the finish line in funding our new clubhouse.

Thank you for standing with us. Your generosity doesn’t just fund programs — it builds places where children can belong, believe, and become.

Together, we’re serving up more than tennis. We’re SERVING UP HOPE.
