On Your Mark, Get Set, Go! Track in Full Swing!

Help me give my students the opportunity to show off their track skills. These kiddos need the Gill Track Wagon to haul around the Gill Discuss and the Softshell Indoor Shot!

My Students

My students are eager to learn and do their best, but sometimes they come to school hungry and without a good night's rest. As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom each day.

Despite so many hardships, they want to be in school because they want to learn, so they can be successful.

Help these kiddos be successful by providing a way for them to show their skills and learn to work together as a team!

My Project

For the past several years we have been sharing track equipment with our neighboring school. Much of this equipment is broken and pieces are missing. Completing this project would allow our kiddos to participate at a higher level with our district.

Our athletes need to have quality materials to go out and practice their skills in order to be competitive with their peers!

It is so disheartening when you are finally old enough to participate and the only gear available is old and falling apart. Please help us give our rising track stars the opportunity to race to the front of the pack!
