Cooper athletes share time and talent to mentor younger students 

By  | 

Meet Z Hemani, a rising senior at John Cooper School and the founder and head coach of a youth football camp that’s now in its second successful summer! What started as a small initiative has grown into a full team effort—complete with a new website, strong community support, and a powerful mission.

Huge shoutout to the student team making it all happen:
