Hi! My name is Valerie Simon, and I came up with the idea for “Serve For Strength” as a way to “give back.” My goal for this fundraiser is to help raise money for children, like me, who need special life-changing bone surgeries, but cannot afford them. I have had two such major surgeries, and I am so thankful for them. Without these surgeries, I would not have been able to resume playing tennis and would not have been introduced to pickleball.

I was fortunate that my insurance covered most of the cost of my surgeries, but other kids might not be as lucky. These surgeries helped me get back to doing what I love, which is the best feeling in the world. I want to help other kids get back to what they love as well.

5.0 Division Only
