Keeping Warm Inside and Out
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Michalski-Geist's classroom raised $338
This project is fully funded
My Project
Many of my students come to school; especially in the winter months, underprepared. I am asking for your help in getting my students warm socks, hats, gloves, scarves and some cocoa to keep my second grade students safe and comfortable going to and from school when the weather gets colder.
Living and attending school where the winters can be very harsh, can extremely dangerous with the wind chill, especially if you are not dressed properly.
For my students, having socks and hats needed to stay warm and safe would be a life changer. There is nothing better than getting new socks to keep your toes cozy and a new hat to keep your head warm.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
