Bay Area Women's Sports Initiative (BAWSI) "I enjoyed volunteering with BAWSI because whenever I see the girls and the smiles on their faces, I realize how big an impact we have on their lives and the difference we are making. I walk away from BAWSI knowing that I’ve given them strength, hope and courage to be all they can be. Through BAWSI we are showing them ...that they are strong and they can do anything they put their mind to!” Santa Clara University Softball player.
