After several years exposed to rain and sunshine, the La Gina Sports Court could no longer occupy the minds and bodies of young Gineros during their hours of recreation, sports and leisure. So last March, as part of our School Renovation and Maintenance Program (PRyME), we restored this sports court located in the TV Centro La Gina High School. Our work included painting, scrubbing and installing basketball hoops alongside volunteers from the local community.

Gallagher: Teaching girls their value
I’m a big fan of giving back and making a difference, especially when it is for children in need. I also believe that making a difference has no boundaries. So sit back and let me take you on a trip to the Dominican Republic. That’s right — the D.R., a place where many residents of our valley head to hit the beach, windsurf, kite surf and let the good times roll.
