Help me give my students the materials they will need to start their own keychain business to reconnect with each other and strengthen foundational math skills.

My Project

Due to the pandemic, our 8th graders missed foundational math concepts taught in 5th and 6th grade. They are in dire need of having concrete examples to bridge those gaps in a meaningful way and increase their overall engagement. Our team is seeking to address this by having our students start their own keychain business. They will research and conduct interest surveys to determine what their clientele would want to buy. Then, your donations will help provide our students with the shrink art paper, colored pencils, keychain accessories, and toaster ovens they need to make the keychains.
