Road To Refrigeration

Help me give my students a brand-new commercial refrigerator/freezer combo. Currently, our kitchen equipment is inoperable and we have not been able to cook due to the lack of refrigeration.

My Project

Hello, my name is Ms.Whitehead, and I teach Culinary arts at MNHS. I'm reaching out to you today with a humble request for your support. I am a firm believer in self-sufficiency and have always been hesitant to ask for assistance. However, I've reached a point where I have no other viable options. I am dedicated to working hard and improving my class, but at this moment, I need a helping hand to get us back on our feet. Your support can make a significant difference in my class.

Currently, our kitchen is inoperable and all of the equipment has to be replaced.

However, since this is a Title 1 school, we are not provided with enough funding to get our students the equipment needed for this course.

Your contributions to a commercial refrigerator will be instrumental in my classroom.

Please consider making a donation, and if you're unable to contribute financially, simply sharing this campaign with your network can make a world of difference. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us.
