How to Donate Equipment
Donations of equipment such as old racquets, used balls, grips, caps, tennis clothing (kids - teenager sizes) and tennis shoes are always welcome in each country. However it is not easy to get items to some countries unless you are working or traveling there.
Donations
If you would like to make a donation, however small, to help or in specific country, please contact the relevant program for more details on how to send your donation.
Note: In the case of Sierra Leone, if you are an American citizen it is possible to make a donation through LemonAid Fund, www.lemonaidfund.org
