My Project

Our Title I high school is preparing for a magical storybook romance themed prom, and we need your help to make it unforgettable! We are seeking donations for a variety of sweet treats that will enhance the enchanting atmosphere of the evening. Items like Swedish Fish, gummy bears, and individually wrapped fortune cookies will be used to create a spectacular candy bar, cleverly themed with names inspired by 12 beloved Disney stories. For example, "Snow White’s Poison Apples" could represent sour candies, while "Ariel’s Under the Sea Gummies" could feature sea creature gummies. The costs range from $12.99 for a pack of gummy bears to $66.50 for beautiful red chocolate roses, all of which will contribute to creating a memorable experience for our students.

By coming together and supporting this initiative, we can ensure that every student feels special and valued during this significant event.

Your generosity will help us provide not only delicious candy but also create a warm, inviting ambiance that reflects the romance of the theme. We deeply appreciate any contributions you can make, as they will directly impact our students’ enjoyment and memories of this extraordinary night. Together, we can transform our candy bar into a whimsical celebration that sparks joy and nostalgia. Thank you for considering our request and for helping us bring this dream to life!
