Y’ALL DIDN’T JUST SHOW UP… YOU SHOWED OUT!!! 🧡🖤
The Peoria Afro American Fire Fighters Association blessed our Lady Rams Basketball Program with an ENTIRE PALLET OF WATER!!! 💦💦💦
YESSSSSS!!! AN ENTIRE PALLET!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
And when I tell you this donation came RIGHT ON TIME, I MEAN EXACTLY THAT!!! 🙏🏾❤️
As we prepare to kick off our 2026–2027 basketball season, there are so many moving pieces, so many needs, and so many things that go into making sure our young ladies have what they need to be successful.
Something as simple as WATER is an everyday necessity for our student-athletes. From those early 6:00 AM workouts to long practices, game nights, and everything in between, keeping our girls hydrated, healthy, and ready to compete is a PRIORITY!
AND YOU ALL JUST TOOK ONE HUGE WEIGHT OFF OUR SHOULDERS!!! 💪🏾💦
But here’s what makes this donation even more special…
🔥 YOU ARE SHOWING OUR GIRLS WHAT COMMUNITY LOOKS LIKE!
🔥 YOU ARE SHOWING THEM WHAT GIVING BACK LOOKS LIKE!
🔥 YOU ARE SHOWING THEM WHAT LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE LOOK LIKE!
🔥 YOU ARE SHOWING THEM THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS CITY WHO BELIEVE IN THEM AND WANT TO SEE THEM WIN!
These men and women already dedicate themselves to protecting lives, serving families, and making our community safer. Yet they STILL find ways to pour into the next generation!
THAT’S NOT JUST COMMUNITY SERVICE… THAT’S COMMUNITY LOVE!!! ❤️❤️❤️
And I need you all to understand something…
At Manual, we are building MORE than basketball players.
We are building confident young women, leaders, scholars, teammates, and future community changemakers!
When organizations like the Peoria Afro American Fire Fighters Association step up and invest in our girls, they are helping us build something that goes FAR BEYOND THE BASKETBALL COURT!
YOU ARE INVESTING IN OUR FUTURE!!! 🏀📚❤️
On behalf of myself, our entire coaching staff, our student-athletes, and the Manual Lady Rams Basketball family…
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!! 🙏🏾
You have NO IDEA how much this means to us! Your generosity, kindness, and willingness to support our program will NEVER go unnoticed or unappreciated!
And because we believe in recognizing the people who stand behind our girls…
🏆🔥 WE ARE PROUD TO RECOGNIZE THE PEORIA AFRO AMERICAN FIRE FIGHTERS ASSOCIATION AS A PREMIER SPONSOR OF THE 2026–2027 MANUAL LADY RAMS BASKETBALL PROGRAM!!! 🔥🏆
