Active Bodies, Bright Futures: PE Equipment for Every Student

Help me give my students updated PE equipment to build strength, coordination, and confidence through active play.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Burtt's classroom raised $843

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our students are full of energy, creativity, and potential and they thrive when given opportunities to move and play. Physical education is an essential part of their day, supporting their physical health, mental well-being, and social-emotional growth. Unfortunately, our current PE equipment is limited and outdated, making it difficult to offer engaging, inclusive, and developmentally appropriate activities.

With your support, we hope to purchase new PE equipment that will allow us to expand our offerings and ensure every child has access to quality movement experiences.

This includes balls, jump ropes, cones, balance gear, and other tools that encourage coordination, teamwork, and physical literacy. Our students deserve a safe and exciting space to build healthy habits and grow stronger every day. Your contribution will make a direct and lasting impact on their confidence, joy, and love of movement.
