SportsHopes welcomes new Student-Athlete Mentor, Ms. Garvey Buchongo, to our team. Garvey Buchongo is a hard-working, academic-focused and soft-spoken advocate for youth. In addition to being a senior and student-athlete at Hercules High School in Hercules, CA, she also founded a tiny org called “The Freedom to Run” project which donates lightly used track & field clothes and shoes to youth who participate in the sport. Garvey competes as a sprinter and long jumper for her high school and for the Hercules Running Rebels which is a track & field club for youth ages 6-18 that was co-founded by her mom, Sudan Buchongo, shown here with Garvey. Garvey and her mom both believe in volunteer work and helping others and take the time to do so. Garvey is a top-notch student with a GPA of over 4.0. She plans to compete in Track & Field at California State University, Sonoma, in the fall of 2016. Awesome, job, Garvey, bright future ahead!
