My students are limited by the worn out equipment. My budget does not get very far. Many of my balls are worn or need replacing. Students talk about going to my class throughout the day. They are excited to play sports but do not have adequate access to the right equipment. Students usually have to bring their balls from home, to replace the ones I have. This equipment may be the only Christmas or birthday present they receive. It would be a really nice surprise if they walked in and didn't have to worry about bringing their own ball in my class. This is an investment that would be truly appreciated. I would not take the time to get this equipment, if I did not think my students would not be humbled by someone donating this equipment to this school. They see so many horrible things in their lives that seeing this would give them a positive perspective on good things happening in the world!
