Active Play, Calmer Days: Recess Support for Our Students

Help me give my students an array of sports and mental health options they can utilize throughout the school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bedolla's classroom raised $205

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are energetic, curious, and full of heart. Many come from low-income families and face challenges beyond the classroom, but every day they show up ready to learn, grow, and support one another. Recess is more than just a break for them — it’s a vital time to move their bodies, calm their minds, and build friendships.

Unfortunately, we’re limited on supplies that help make this time meaningful.

With your support, we can add a soccer ball, jump ropes, calming strips, and other simple tools to give students healthy, positive outlets for their energy — whether they’re outside playing or inside on rainy days. These items will help my students manage stress, connect with each other, and return to class focused and refreshed.

Your donation isn’t just for equipment — it’s an investment in the well-being and happiness of a resilient, hardworking, and very special group of kids.
