Gardening: Where Dreams Bloom and Worries Fade
This project expired on July 23, 2025.
My Project
We have a gardening club here at our Elementary! Students from kindergarten to 6th grade are welcome to join our club. We want to instill the love of gardening in our students and turn them into "Garden Whispers"
We strongly believe that introducing gardening as an extracurricular activity will bring numerous benefits to our school community. One way we do this is with our Free Garden Club event for all of our students and for the community. We need your help. We need seeds, garden gloves, garden tools and more. We want our students to learn that there are no gardening mistakes, only experiments.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
You donate directly to the teacher or project you care about and see where every dollar you give goes.
