Ice for Ouchies!

Help me give my students an ice machine for those little boo boos!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Townsend's classroom raised $167

This project is fully funded

My Project

Having an in-classroom, countertop ice machine will help in multiple areas. As with any school, our students sometimes hurt themselves by falling or getting hurt while on the playground. Some just need an ice pack to help soothe a headache. Also, on those hot school days, an ice pack would help cool students down if they get overheated.

Help me give my students relief using the nugget ice maker when needed for boo-boos or cooling.

Sometimes ice just makes the students feel better. Instead of having to send the students to the nurse's station for non-emergencies, we can make little ice packs in class to help them feel better.
