Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

We’re looking to raise funds to purchase new plyometric boxes—a vital piece of equipment that will enhance our students’ strength, agility, and overall fitness. Plyometric boxes are used for jump training, speed drills, and explosive power development, all of which are key to improving athletic performance.

Through DonorsChoose, we are seeking your help to raise the necessary funds to bring this equipment into our gym.

Your donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward purchasing durable, high-quality plyometric boxes that will benefit all of our students during their workouts and physical education classes.

Our students are special because they consistently show enthusiasm, determination, and a strong desire to challenge themselves. They work hard every day to improve their fitness and personal growth, and these boxes will help them push their limits and reach new heights in their physical development.
