My Project

Why donate cheer uniforms, tumble mats, and cheer essentials to middles school students? Middle school is a time when students are learning who they are. For many, joining a cheer team is more than just a sport; it is a source of confidence, teamwork, school pride, and belonging. But without the proper uniforms, safety gear, and cheer essentials, many students are left on the sidelines—eager to participate, but without the resources to do so safely or proudly.

Your donation can change that.

Cheer uniforms help students feel like part of a team, building self-esteem and a sense of unity. A quality tumble mat ensures that students can safely practice stunts and routines while learning discipline and physical coordination. Pom-poms, bows, and other gear may seem small, but they help bring energy and excitement to school spirit events, competitions, and performances.

When you donate to support a middle school cheer team, you’re not just giving gear; you’re giving students the chance to shine, to lead, and to be part of something bigger than themselves.

Let’s lift them up, literally and figuratively, and show them that, with the right support, they can cheer louder, jump higher, and grow stronger.
