My Project

We are a title one school, and 83% of our students receive free or reduced lunch each day. Our playground has been missing basic equipment for students to interact with each other and practice those team building skills. Because of this, we teachers are seeing a lot of frustration and scuffles, during what should be the 'best part of the day' for these learners!

By just adding some basic soccer balls and rubber balls, we could have the entire play yard enjoying a variety of activities together.

I couldn't do this work without your help! I have so enjoyed being a part of this school community, and feel this would be an amazing way to give back to all of these sweet friends I have made here. By choosing to support this project, please know you are significantly impacting 560 kids each day during recess. They will be able to grow as a community together, and learn teamwork skills that are so important for today's kids.
