Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

Can you imagine going outside to play and there are only trees and a basketball court for you to actively play on? Currently our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders have only this for their daily physical activity outside. We need to help them stay in shape.

We are a Title l school, which indicates that we have a high percentage of students on free or reduced price lunch.

These students are so appreciative of everything you give them and they deserve to have an actual place to exercise on. Our school is within a neighborhood and has lots of land but only a basketball court for our students to engage with daily for physical activity. I would like to help our students to stay fit. You can help our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students get fit by supporting our quest to provide equipment for all the students to actively play on.

My Project

These materials will help our learners to stay fit each and every day. The balance beams will help to provide balance which will help build up those large muscles and the bars will help with building arm muscles with pull ups. The learners will have access to the equipment each day. Please help us to help our learners to stay fit with this equipment.

Your donation will help to motivate a child to stay physically fit.

You will help our students for years to come. The equipment will be placed in the field where each of our learners will be able to exercise. Please consider helping our learners stay physically fit!
