Many of my second graders in our small, rural town come to school with challenges in their lives, and low expectations about their future. We are a small budget, small town school, that is trying to think big. Our district is not a wealthy one. The PTAs of some schools in the county raise more money in a year than our annual building budget! Though many of my kids don't have a lot, they have big hearts and love making a difference by making Valentine's for Vets, donating their stuffed animals to kids in Guatemala, and sending cards to kids at the Shoe4Africa Children's Hospital. At our school, we work hard to break the cycle of poverty and level the playing field for these kids, since all kids deserve the same chance at success. To do this, we must get creative with our funding sources. Thanks for considering a donation to help us!
