Baristas Without Limits

Help me give my students a coffee cart to practice skills needed to prepare for life beyond the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Poteet's classroom raised $570

My Project

I invite you to participate in sponsoring or donating to my class's coffee cart program. My students practice hands-on life skills daily that they will use in the future. My ultimate goal in my classroom is to prepare my students for life beyond the classroom.

Students in my classroom need to practice skills that will prepare them to live independently, acquire gainful employment, and complete day-to-day tasks.

This coffee cart will help support students as they develop social skills and peer communication, skills in operations and maintenance, and finance and numeracy. Students will also improve employability and general soft skills. The profit that will be made from this enterprise will return to the student's classroom and benefit them directly.
