Hydration Matters

Help me give my students tools for a healthy lifestyle while doing cheer!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Taylor's classroom raised $258

My Project

My students here are in need of cheer supplies to start the sports season off. This is our school's first year and we are just stuck on a couple of things to get us pushing and started! Our girls are super excited and ready to start cheering. We need Gatorade and water bottles for our girls. We are needing water bottles for cold water to drink for school to the games we play at. A lot of students aren't able to have to keep a cold drink as well as buy a drink as some gems. This donation will do a lot to help them out as well as stay hydrated on those hot game days!
