Anita Burke,
Educator & Sports Coach
It's not just about
bustin' a jumper or takin' a dribble behind the back...between
the legs...shooting a reverse lay up or a perfect free throw...It's
about building character and achieveing excellence...it's about
being the best at what you do...it's about tenacity and perseverance...It's
about winning!

Tracy Cook,
Esq., Child Advocate
Her voice resonates
in the courtroom like a trumpet...sounding the call for our children...those
without a voice...those who society fail to listen to...those
whose voices have been drowned out in a system's sea..Who speaks
for these children? She proudly proclaims, "I speak for our
children."
