Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

Our students come from across our city and our entire school qualifies for free lunch and transportation to and from school based on the fact that the majority of our students live below the poverty level.

Despite the issues facing our students, they come to school every day and persevere.

Most every student attends college post-graduation. Our students need any support available, as our school and district often cannot provide the resources necessary for our students to compete with other high schools in our region.

My Project

We are requesting funding for new hurdles for our girls' track team. Your support will go a long way to helping our team replace and replenish what we already have in terms of Track equipment.

Our kids work hard throughout the year to build chemistry and be great student-athletes on the court and in the classroom.

Being able to get new equipment would really help motivate them even further.

Your continued support of athletics in urban public schools is needed to give students like ours a chance to compete given the lack of resources available within already stretched thin budgets. We are specifically asking for new hurdles, javelin (indoor and outdoor), discus (indoor and outdoor), and Shotputs (indoor and outdoor).
