Football Helmets Improve Player Safety in Weiser

  • Local Champion: Weiser High School Athletics
  • Date Funded: September 19, 2024
  • Grant Amount: $7,500

Weiser High School’s football program continues to grow as the school’s population expands, attracting more student athletes each year. However, many of the team’s helmets have failed safety inspections due to age and wear, putting player safety at risk. One football coach decided to tackle this growing concern, so he reached out to LOR for support. LOR’s funding will help Weiser High School purchase 19 football helmets that meet current safety standards, ensuring all student athletes can participate safely in the sport.
