My Project

Many of my students do not have the basic supplies for a comfortable winter. I would love to be able to provide them with these warm sweatpants to keep them warm all winter long. It will help tremendously!

I know that the students, parents, and I will be very grateful for these basic items.

Sweatpants will be used during gym periods and will help fulfill a need for our students.

Please help make this dream happen! Any donations will help. Thank you again for all you do for the DonorsChoose community!
