The students at our school have loved having the basketballs from the last Donors Choose project! The best thing about it is that all of the basketballs are still around because we asked for and received outdoor Spalding playground equipment which has withstood the pounding by normal, healthy children. Bearing this in mind, I am beginning a new fundraiser for heavier duty rubber playground balls, basketball nets, and kickballs.
Our students shrieked when the packages arrived and they saw the word Spalding on the equipment as we opened up the packages.
I wish all of our donors could see their faces with eyes wide, better than December 25th! Our students are energetic, sharing, happy, and hardworking. They are very protective of the current equipment but I would like to replace the nets that look like the Adams Family, creepy and kooky! believe they deserve the opportunity to play with equipment that lasts so they don't have to walk on egg shells using equipment that saves money but disappoints for a long time. They need name brand equipment that will last. Please, won't you help us?
My Project
This equipment will make a difference in the lives of young children who need to work out their wiggles so they can concentrate in the classroom. It is just as important to get daily, healthy exercise, along with academics, helped out with plenty of equipment during playtime and not wait for low quality balls to get blown up daily. This is why good, brand name equipment is the standard. Kids will try their best in everything if we believe in them, and providing them with enough playground diversion is a smart investment in our youngsters and our future citizens.
