Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The After School Strength Training Club is dedicated to promoting physical fitness and strength training among students outside of regular school hours. In our pursuit of creating a safe and effective training environment, we recognize the importance of providing proper equipment to our students. One essential piece of equipment that we currently lack is lifting belts. We are asking for funding for 10 lifting belts through the fulfillment of this project. Lifting belts serve as a crucial tool in promoting safety and form during heavy lifting exercises. This proposal outlines the necessity and benefits of acquiring lifting belts for our club. In conclusion, the acquisition of lifting belts for our After School Strength Training Club is essential to promoting safety, enhancing performance, and providing our members with a positive and rewarding training experience. By investing in this equipment, we demonstrate our commitment to the well-being and development of our students. We kindly request approval and support for this proposal to proceed with the acquisition of lifting belts.

Thank you for considering our proposal.

We look forward to the opportunity to further enhance our strength training program and support the growth and success of our club members.
