Shoutout to the incredible students from Strong Rock Christian School in Locust Grove, Georgia!

While in town to catch a few Memphis Grizzlies games, this group of student-athletes chose to serve at the MAM Grizzlies Center — helping with projects throughout the facility and making a tangible difference. 🙌

“We know how pivotal it is to have great facilities to practice and play in,” they shared. “We want to help play a part in giving young kids a safe place to play.” 💙

During National Volunteer Month, we’re especially grateful for volunteers like these who lead with purpose and serve with heart!

🏈✨ What an unforgettable day for MAM youth at the Memphis Showboats season opener yesterday! Thanks to SouthWorth Capital Management, over 80 of our youth, parents, and staff got to experience their Champion’s Day, a celebration of young athletes and our community.
