My Students

I am a member of a school that teaches students to enthusiastically express themselves by creating props and costumes for all artistic performances several times during the school year. We have limited funds and unfortunately many of our glue guns have expired causing a interruption in production.

Our students excel as they learn in a classical setting.

They sing, dance, compose and produce artistic masterpieces. They learn to think and use their voice to express those thoughts in a methodical, exuberant way. They strive for optimum achievement academically, socially and emotionally and I am honored to be a part of their education.

My Project

Glue guns are necessary in the creation of props, costumes and sculptures. Other glues seem to be messy, expensive and unreliable. Also, students manage their time efficiently when glue guns are used. At this time we are limited because of several guns breaking. This has slowed our production and has caused us to scale down the desires of the students' creations. Please help us continue to do our best and work at our optimum potential.

The beauty of this donation is the fact that the guns can and will be used all year by several age groups in several venues.

It also gives those who have been waiting to participate an opportunity to excel. Please consider my request.
