My Project

Dear DonorsChoose Community,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am reaching out on behalf of an incredible group of young athletes at our Title I school who are passionate about track and field. These dedicated individuals face unique challenges due to the limited resources available to them. We are seeking your support to ensure their well-being and success during their training sessions and competitions.

Hydration is crucial for our athletes, especially during intense practice sessions under the sun. We are in need of water and Gatorade to keep our team hydrated and energized. Additionally, personal hygiene is a concern, and we are requesting deodorant spray to help our athletes feel confident and comfortable.

To address muscle cramps and provide a natural source of electrolytes, we are seeking jars of pickles. These not only serve as a tasty treat but also aid in preventing cramps, ensuring our athletes can perform at their best. For a sweet and nutritious reward after their hard work, we are also requesting gummies for a real fruit treat.

To make the transportation of equipment and necessities more manageable, we are seeking a wagon. This will greatly assist our athletes in pulling their track necessities around, allowing them to focus on their training without the burden of carrying heavy loads.

Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of these dedicated young individuals. By providing the essentials they need, you are not only investing in their athletic endeavors but also fostering a sense of community and empowerment within our school.

Please consider contributing to our cause and helping these remarkable students pursue their passion for track and field. Together, we can make a positive impact on their journey and inspire them to reach new heights.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
