Cold Hands Need Warm Gloves

Help me give my students warm hats and gloves to play in the snow at recess. I'm also asking for snow toys for children to have fun in the snow.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kauffman's classroom raised $319

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Living in Northern Indiana we get quite a lot of snow. Children enjoy playing in the snow, but many times do not have gloves and hats to keep them warm.

By supporting my project, you would be helping my students receive new gloves and hats to keep them warm while they play in the snow.

These students would be able to enjoy recess and not worry about being cold.

I also wanted to give students some tools to play and be creative in the snow. This project also includes a few snow toys. Thank you for wanting to help students enjoy a snowy, cold recess.
