Seed money for sports
Little Grass Foundation, a Milpitas-based youth volunteer organization, this month donated $10,000 to the Morgan Autism Center in San Jose for projects like sports facilities and physical education programs for students with autism.
The Little Grass Foundation was founded by a group of high school students in 2022. With hundreds of volunteer hours contributed by teenage coaches, the organization has provided more than 450 children from diverse cultural backgrounds the opportunity to participate in sports including basketball, soccer, volleyball and dance. Programs also include enrichment activities such as robotics and chess. Expanding from Milpitas, the foundation now hosts sports camps in San Jose, Fremont and Cupertino.
“Our goal is to help children in our community to discover and experience sports and other enrichment programs from an early age for better physical and mental health development,” said foundation president and founder Ivan Zhang, a Milpitas resident and a rising senior at BASIS Independent Silicon Valley Upper School in San Jose. “The collaboration with the Morgan Autism Center will allow our youths to learn about ways to help those with special needs in our community.”
