On this day, 29 years ago, Washington DC native Penny Toler scored the first basket in WNBA history for the LA Sparks, forever etching her name in the books. A record that quite literally no one else can beat.

As the GM for nearly 20 years of the LA Sparks, she was responsible drafting some of our favorite hoopers to the league and winning the ONLY championships to date for the Sparks. 3 of them thangs! 🏆🏆🏆

Auntie Penny is what we call her here at the Can’t Retire Project, and today, we give her ALL HER DESERVED FLOWERS 💐🌻🌺

Coach Rich is the thread that takes the Can’t Retire From This story from the DMV to Philly. Her support for us has been unwavering from the very beginning and our gratitude is unending.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for seeing the vision and for helping us bring this vision to life.

We could not do this work without you!

Women’s basketball has a storytelling problem.

The game is celebrated without naming the women who built the game before anyone was watching. Who really paved the way for women’s basketball?

We’ve been collecting stories, gathering artifacts, and documenting the culture. We’ve been waiting for the right timing and alignment to share what we have.

THE WAIT IS OVER [as long as we have the support]

The Can’t Retire Project exists because the archive matters. Legends deserve their flowers WHILE THEY CAN SMELL THEM. Every girl who picks up a ball deserves to know who built what she’s standing on.

This is our work. This is our mission.
We are 25 days from our June 5 deadline on Seed & Spark. We need to reach $60,000 to bring the next chapter of CRFT: Philadelphia to life.

If authentic impact-driven storytelling is important to you tap that link in bio. The archive doesn’t build itself. The archive needs you!
