My Project
As we strive to foster a positive and supportive environment for the students in the Bronx, we are reaching out to you with an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful impact. Our beloved basketball team is in need of new jerseys, and we are turning to our generous community for support.
Our school serves a diverse group of children, many of whom come from low-income families.
The basketball team has been a source of pride and inspiration, instilling values of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance in our students. Unfortunately, our current jerseys are worn and no longer reflect the vibrant spirit of our team. By contributing to our fundraising campaign, you will directly enhance the experience for these young athletes, providing them with a sense of pride and unity. Your generosity will not only supply much-needed jerseys but also communicate to our students that their community believes in their potential and values their efforts.
We understand the challenges faced by many families in our community, and any donation, no matter the size, will be greatly appreciated. Together, we can empower children, fostering a sense of belonging and accomplishment.
Thank you for considering our request. Your support means the world to us and, more importantly, to the budding athletes here.
More than half of students from low‑income households
