Growth Dollar Store

Help me give my students their favorite thing to buy in the GROWTH dollar store.

This project expired on May 29, 2023.

My Project

Takis are the item that "sells out" quickly in the GROWTH dollar store. Instead of raising the "cost" of each bag, I hoped to just get more donated. Kids work hard to earn GROWTH dollars and commented today that they really like my store because they can "buy" more of what they really want.

Donations to this project will help me keep stocked with Takis, the favorite of most students.

GROWTH dollars are given to students for going above and beyond in their educational endeavors. Donating to this project to help fund the store would make a lot of students very happy.
