Magic Sports Equipment

Help me give my students the sports equipment including playground sets and volleyballs that they need to play team sports!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Verdi's classroom raised $648

This project is fully funded

My Project

Volleyballs! Playground sets including Basketballs and golf balls (foam of course)! We need equipment to play fun games and teach new skills in our PE classes. Everyone loves PE, and if they don't, I would love to help change their mind

Please help our students get sports equipment, specifically balls, for the sports they love.

Our students enjoy learning new skills and playing team sports before we have tryouts for that sport at our school.

We will be using the equipment for our 6th, 7th, and 8th grade PE classes and our INTRAMURAL programs!
