Chicago PE in Need!

Help me give my students new sporting equipment to enhance their athletic ability and performance!!!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Fuqua's classroom raised $413

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am asking for donations to replenish our PE program with soccer balls and basketballs. Our equipment has been depleted over recent years and our school has very little funding for the PE program. This project would tremendously benefit my k-4 elementary scholars athletic abilities and aspirations.

Your generous donation would bring much joy and excitement to a school and community that falls below the poverty line.

Every kid deserves to have the best possible chance to succeed and I want my scholars PE experience to expose them to a wide range of activities and sports. We greatly appreciate your support!
