Our boys and girls' athletes are determined and hard-working. They put more into learning the game and developing as players more than most. They are all seventh and eighth-graders. They are enthusiastic and energetic. We are in a rural area with no outdoor parks or places to play football or basketball except in the school setting.
They want to become better athletes but do not always have the funds to pay for what they need to improve their skills.
School budgets are spread thin with physical education and athletics the last to receive funding.
My Project
The season is drawing near and we will need a safe and secure place to store our uniforms this year and for years to come. Our school gets cleaned and floors are redone every summer. This puts a lot of dust and debris in the air. This unfortunately ends up on our white uniforms.
We need storage bins to keep our uniforms safe and clean during the offseason, With so many items being moved around during the summer, our uniforms tend to get very dirty from all the dust and debris.
These bins and bags will help us keep them clean and stored in one place for safekeeping.
More than half of students from low‑income households
