My Project

We belong to a small elementary school located in Douglasville. It’s a place filled with love and laughter, exuding from our staff as well as our kids.

Our school lacks the proper equipment to conduct a gymnastics unit.

Donations will allow my students the opportunity to develop gymnastic skills.

Our school is a dual language institution which offers exposure to diverse cultures.

They love P.E.! It’s their favorite class!

We rely on fundraising opportunities to help grow our program and update and refresh our equipment. I want to provide our kids with the opportunity to be active and expose them to a variety of skills and activities while encouraging them to take priority in their physical education and mental health. The gymnastics equipment will improve muscular strength and endurance in their legs. The mat will provide stability and ensure safety measures are included in my lessons. Exercise builds confidence in children’s abilities to do difficult things. Your contribution will be changing the lives of 450 students this year… and will continue to bless others for many years to come.
