My Project
Your donations will help go towards rebuilding our schools weightroom! This project is focused on procuring items needed to enhance the dilapidated weight room in our school. We are looking for weight plates, weight bars, and kettle bells. These items will not only help out schools Track and Field team, which I coach, but they will also help all other sports in our school as well which will include Football, basketball, soccer, softball, swimming, and wrestling! All in all we project that these items will help over 500 student athetes prepare for there respective seasons! Thank you in advance for all your help!
