Monrovia Middle School Fundraising For New Soccer Uniforms

MONROVIA, CA – The boys and girls soccer teams at a Monrovia middle school are fundraising for new soccer uniforms. Santa Fe Computer Science Magnet School soccer teams both have "outdated, ill-fitting uniforms" that have been used for more than ten years, the fundraiser says.

Uniforms are approximately $25 per student, and 50 uniforms are needed, according to the GoFundMe.

"The Cougar athletes play with a lot of heart and are very deserving of new uniforms!" one donor wrote.

"I believe it 'takes a village' to make things better. Also, youth sports are hugely important for our kids and community," another donor wrote.

The team got their new uniforms for their final two games, but they still need to raise about $800 more to pay for them, according to a fundraiser update.
