My Project

This 8th-grade class has been through rough several years in middle school. They have been working hard to earn money for their class trip despite many obstacles preventing them from participating in the typical fundraising opportunities.

They are a fun and engaging group that enjoys interacting with the community, making this a perfect fundraising opportunity.

Being a rural community, many of our students have not had the opportunity to travel out of the state, let alone to a city like Boston, which is our trip destination. Thank you for helping us reach our goal!

The chalk, heat press, and other items we're looking for will help us put on our first annual color run which consists of participants running our cross-country course while being covered in the colored chalk. They'll be wearing custom "5c" t-shirts that we'll be printing ourselves utilizing the materials on this list.
