Please help us welcome the newest member to our Volo Kids Team, Corey, our Program and Outreach Coordinator in Baltimore! From Corey, "The power of play is crucial for children as it serves as a fundamental building block for their development. Through play, kids learn essential life skills such as problem-solving, teamwork, creativity, and resilience. It provides them with a safe space to explore their abilities, interact with others, and understand social dynamics." Welcome to the team Corey!

Please help us welcome the newest member to our Volo Kids Team, Zac, our Program and Outreach Manager in Denver! From Zac, "The power of play can be transformative and life changing for youth from any background or demographic. Play gives a unqiue opportunity to increase individuals interpersonal skills with their peers in a fun and healthy setting. Personally youth sports introduced me to my life long friends and I hope to help bring a similar experience to youth across my community." Welcome to the team Zac!
