My Project

I'm a fourth grade teacher at a Title I school. I want to give my students opportunities to get excited about being outdoors, playing games and staying active. I have witnessed the passion and enthusiasm that my students have for sports.

Unfortunately, our current sports equipment is outdated and insufficient to meet the growing interest and participation of my students.

I am asking for help to acquire new sports equipment to provide my students with badminton rackets, football equipment and jump ropes for a safe and enjoyable experience.

Your support can make a significant impact on the lives of these young athletes. By contributing, you are helping to create an environment where they can develop essential skills, foster teamwork, and, most importantly, have fun.
