My Project
A full camping set donation is needed for our 16th annual STEAM & Story Walk for grades PreK-3. This is an incredible act of generosity, providing students with the opportunity to experience the "outdoors" and create lasting memories together. I'll use these items including a tent, sleeping bags, coolers, cookware, chairs, and other essential camping gear, for my students to enjoy a comfortable and memorable "camping" experience without financial barriers. This thoughtful donation not only ensures they have the necessary tools for a successful adventure, but also opens the door for them to connect with nature, improve family bonds, and take part in activities they might not have chosen to do otherwise. It’s a gesture that can bring joy, a sense of adventure, and a break from daily routines, allowing them to make the most of their time.
Family engagement is crucial for events like our annual Story Walk event because it fosters a sense of connection, learning, and shared experience.
When families participate together, children are more likely to engage in their learning, developing their literacy and critical thinking skills. Parents and staff can guide children through stations creating a deeper bond with the activities, making it more meaningful for everyone involved. Additionally, this event encourages families to spend quality time together, engage in healthy activities, and enjoy the benefits of both physical and mental stimulation. This event also provides an opportunity for families to bond over a common experience, encouraging collaboration, discussion, and reflection. Overall, it creates a fun, positive, interactive environment that makes learning more enjoyable for both kids and adults.
This camping set is a major component for this year's event themed: "Camp Quip-the Adventure Awaits" and will increase participation by adding an extra layer of excitement and motivation while promoting a sense of community.
