My Project

I teach in a high needs Title I district in Iowa. Many of our families receive free and/or reduced lunch. As such, many of our students rely on school instruments and school-provided opportunities. I am working very hard to ensure that my students have the same opportunities as students in other districts.

We routinely need to move equipment for concerts or to take ensembles to perform at other locations, and the cart that we use to help us move our equipment has been damaged and needs replaced.

This project will purchase a new cart that will allow us to move things like speakers, sound equipment, large percussion instruments, chairs, etc. We anticipate this cart to last our department a long time, like the cart before it. It's a key part of our "team", and we are eager to have it replaced. We appreciate your support in helping to make that happen!
