Help Keep Us Warm

Help me give my students sweatshirts to help keep us warm on chilly days.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Piccolo's classroom raised $167

This project is fully funded

My Project

The chilly winter months are here, and I would love to give all of my students personalized sweatshirts to wear with their uniforms.

I have had new students come in from other countries and I would love to help these newcomers with the appropriate sweatshirts that will help keep them warm and their minds sharp.

Help me to eliminate some of the winter frigidness, and make my students feel warm and cozy by providing my students these sweatshirts that I will personalize myself with their names and school mascot. My students will be forever grateful. These sweatshirts will provide the extra warmth my students might need to keep the cold away which in turn will allow them to focus on the activity or lesson at hand.

Receiving these sweatshirts will help keep my students warm and feeling loved.

Please help us achieve this important goal!
