Grades 3-5

Our school is located in a very low socioeconomic area of South Carolina. Most of our students live in nearby apartment complexes and extended stay motels.

Being a Title I school, we do not have much money for classroom supplies, let alone P.E. equipment. Our kids love football, but we only have 2 balls for ALL 450 kids. That is barely enough for recess, let alone an entire unit on the sport.

We are asking for the donation of 20 footballs for our preschool through fifth grade classes. All of our students will use the footballs for P.E., recess, and after school programs.

Your donation will ensure that all of our boys and girls will have the chance to experience the wonderful sport of football in elementary school! In addition, it will provide equipment for ALL 3 areas of physical education, recess, and our non-profit after school programs!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
