2011 Athletics & Academics Camps
- Dominica

As a follow up to our 2010 court refurbishment project in Dominica, KLF partnered with the Peace Corps to hold an Athletics & Academics Camp on the new KLF Court for 130+ at-risk youths from the villages of Grand Fond, Riviere Cyrique, Morne Jaune and Laplaine. Adonal Foyle and a team of 10 volunteers traveled to Dominica to spend the day with the kids, teaching basketball and important life lessons!
