My Project

I am requesting indoor soccer balls for our sports clubs. They will also be used before school and lunchtime. We are also seeking nets for badminton and pickle-ball. The school is an active school. We provide activities in the morning before school. We have activities at lunch. We also provide numerous clubs after school.

We need to keep these kids active and safe.

Kids who join activities do better in school. They have a sense of belonging and enjoy school more. Kids will use these balls and nets every day.
