Coach Maria Teaches Nutrition to L.A. Kids

Coach Maria is a Coach Across America member in Los Angeles.  Coach Across America (CAA) is an AmeriCorps program launched by Up2Us to provide its member organizations with the support needed to train and host highly effective coaches in sports and youth development throughout the United States.

Coach Maria is a veteran CAA coach, working since its establishment.  Maria has a background in nutrition and health, so she promotes staying active and balanced meals with kids. She joined CAA to give back to her community.

“I love working with kids. I also like to teach parents and students about healtier lifestyles. I believe that sports do impact the lives of youth because it teaches them to be team players and other life skills.”

Thanks to all of your donations, Coach Maria can continue to inspire and empower kids through sports. Thank you all for making it possible for Maria to keep coaching kids for the next year!
