Helping student-athletes stay in the game

Thanks to a strong partnership between the Orcas Community Resource Center and the Orcas Island Booster Club, the Athletic Assistance Program ensures no student-athlete is sidelined due to financial barriers. For families juggling rising expenses, it’s a game-changer!

During the 24-25 school year, the fund made a difference for over 30 students by covering the costs of registration fees and essential equipment such as shin guards, cleats or baseball gloves.

The Resource Center accepts program applications year-round. If you know a student who could benefit or want to support the fund, please contact the Resource Center or the Booster Club. Families can apply at https://form.jotform.com/232191124308144.
