Madison Keys organized her 4th annual Kindness Wins Day with a goal to raise $10000 to renovate tennis courts that need some care.
This great initiative was supported by many fellow players, who matches a $500 donation made by Madison Keys. The list of players that donated $500 is very long and includes: Jessica Pegula, Sloane Stephens, Taylor Townsend, Alison Riske, Caty McNally, Shelby Rogers, Jennifer Brady and Victoria Azarenka. Only 18-years-old Coco Gauff also donated, but she doubled the amount and donated $1000 to help Madison Keys' goal.
"Hi everyone, it's Coco Gauff and if you don't know what today is, it's Kindness Wins Day, and if you don't know what that is, it's an initiative started by Madison Keys and her Kindness Wins Foundation. And basically today, we're trying to raise up to $10,000 or more to help with their initiatives," Coco Gauff said.
"And for this initiative, they will be renovating some courts, tennis courts that need some love, and I think this is an important cause because it gives everyone an opportunity to play no matter where they're from or their background. So I've donated $1000. If you would like to donate, I'll attach the link on this story and also on the next one. Thank you and thanks to Madison for all that you're doing," Gauff added.
