My Project

Cheerleaders are the heart of school spirit, lifting morale at games and events. However, due to our limited budget, providing them with the necessary accessories to perform their best is a struggle.

To start the season, I want our team to have everything needed to be successful, which begins with the right cheer shoes, jackets, and bows.

We can elevate their performances by adding an extra spark to their routines. These items make them look uniform, feel united as a team, build their confidence, and show pride in our school. With your support, we can ensure that our team shines even brighter, and will allow them to show school spirit in all they do.
