My Project

Being in a growing community of economically challenged students, my project will help my kids enjoy social interaction and incentive to set goals and work hard before they can play outside with each other. On rainy days, indoor recess occurs and supplies like pencil sharpeners help with colored pencils, and other resources that allow them to work together to reach their goals. Physical movement will help with teamwork and motivation to succeed as they have been isolated from each other due to Covid. Supplies are always in need as many are not able to bring in the basics needed to learn and thrive. This is mostly due to post Covid related expenses and will help them socially, mentally as well as academically.
