Building Strong Futures: Students Deserve Quality PE Equipment

Help me give my students the PE equipment they need to stay safe, learn teamwork, and build lifelong healthy habits.

This project expired on March 18, 2026.

Coach Dallas Walter J Meyer Elementary School
Tombstone, AZ Grades 6-8

My Project

Physical Education at our elementary school is more than exercise it’s a foundation for confidence, teamwork, and lifelong healthy habits. My students are eager to learn and grow, but without proper equipment, their opportunities are limited.

The Vertical Challenger Jump Tester, 3-in-1 Soft-Padded Plyo Box, Franklin Disc Golf Target, Pickleball Net System, SoftTouch Tetherball, Soccer Cones, Dodgeballs and other items will make a real difference by creating safe, engaging activities that teach strategy, cooperation, and resilience.

New mats, balls, and conditioning tools will allow me to reduce injuries, improve participation, and give every child from beginners to athletes the chance to succeed. I am asking for the athletic tests my students need such as vertical jump, broad jump, and other athletic tests as well as storage for equipment and games for all ages. Lastly I am requesting a speaker for school wide events and music for PE class for all ages.

I know that the right equipment will transform learning for my students by making PE inclusive, exciting, and meaningful. With these resources, I can achieve the goals to increase athletic participation, grow legends in our community, and establish teamwork and respect. My students are special because they bring incredible spirit and determination to every class. They live in a historic town with a proud tradition, and they deserve opportunities that match their potential. By investing in PE, you are investing in their health, leadership, and future. Your support will create opportunities for every child to succeed both on and off the field.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
