My Project

Our elementary school is in need of a popcorn machine. This popcorn machine would be used to enhance our student events and school-wide celebrations for reading and math! Our students enjoy popcorn as a light treat and as a reward for meeting various classroom goals throughout the year.

Popcorn is always a favorite snack at our school, and having a popcorn machine would allow us to provide this tasty treat as an incentive for different events and various celebrations.

Your generous contribution will help bring more fun and school spirit to our various school events.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
