My Project

Our school is hosting a plant sale to provide students with hands-on learning experiences in science, math, and business. This event fosters responsibility, teamwork, and environmental awareness while raising funds for future educational projects.

To ensure a successful sale, we need essential supplies such as soil, seeds, pots, plant, and signage.

These materials will allow students to grow and care for plants, apply math skills in pricing and sales, and develop entrepreneurial skills. This project will benefit students by providing real-world applications of their learning, encouraging sustainability, and engaging the community.

Additionally, proceeds from the sale will support further school initiatives. Your support will directly contribute to hands-on education and a thriving school project.
