Help me give my students athletes the proper equipment (barbells, weights, etc.) to increase their overall in their particular sports, so they can be ready to compete at a high level
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ajose's classroom raised $999
This project is fully funded
My Project
At our school, our athletes are very talented and hard-working. The new hex bar, basketball, and other equipment will help make our football, basketball, volleyball, and track programs better. Giving our athletes a better chance at competing at a high level. Currently, our programs are not where we want them to be and this equipment will help us jumpstart our athletic programs tremendously. The resources we are asking for will help make our athletes, faster, stronger and mentally prepared for their sport, we will not have to share equipment with other in-season sports as well. Our young warriors are asking for your help so they can be given the opportunity and resources they need for to be given an equal advantage in their specific sport to compete on the same level as their competitors.
