One team, one dream
How the Spartans’ special needs football team scored a trip to the Super Bowl - thanks to Ev’ryday.

When the Santa Clara Spartans, a youth American Football team for kids with special needs, heard about Ev’ryday, they signed up - hoping to maybe buy new helmets. Eight months later, they’d raised over $15,000, enough to fly the whole squad to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
“Honestly, we were stunned,” says Coach James Hill. “Parents and friends just shopped like normal - we didn’t sell a single raffle ticket or beg for donations. Ev’ryday did it all in the background.”
For many of these teens, this is a dream come true. “Our kids face enough challenges - this trip is a once-in-a-lifetime gift,” says James.
Parent Narnia Robe agrees: “We saw our grocery bills help send our son to the biggest game in the world. It’s the best fundraiser we’ve ever done.”
Next goal? “More gear, more travel, more memories,” James beams. “Ev’ryday makes it possible.”
