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

We need footballs to help us during our upcoming season. These footballs we are requesting are the best of the best and will last us for seasons to come if we can obtain them. Coaching in middle school we are given footballs that are not of the best quality and typically do not last the entire season. The Wilson GST footballs are the footballs used in high school and cost a nice amount which unfortunately middle school programs do not have the type of money to spend on this need.

We would be eternally grateful for any and all help that we receive towards our goal of purchasing these footballs.
