4. Tennis Channel Special
|
|
MINING HAPPINESS: The Tennis Channel did a feature story on our Jewel Never Broken & TEAM BRYAN program during the US OPEN. With Cherrial Odell’s family, they highlighted her incredible story; and how she healed and rebuilt her relationship with herself, her father, and mother.
Like all of us, Cherrial’s father struggled, yet through it all did everything in his power to inspire his daughter to be the best she could be. He and Cherrial’s mother have been incredible supporters and contributors to our program. To help and inspire other children struggling, Cherrial and her family worked with the Tennis Channel to tell her story.
Our mentors, parents, supporters, and the culture created by our youth and alumni, all helped make Cherrial one of the happiest children in our program.
