Thank you for generously supporting Kali in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
Kali has a deep love for basketball and all it's highlights. It provides her with joy, excitement and a sense of escape both on and off the court. It offers her physical and mental benefits including fitness, skills, development and stress relief. Furthermore, the competitive nature, team work and opportunities for personal growth are all significant aspects of what makes basketball so appealing to her.
Michael Jordan is widely regarded as one of my most inspiring Basketball players of all time. He played a significant role in helping to popularize the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.
Watching Kali and her team win games and work so hard at their grueling practices.
