Protect Me From the Rain

Help me give my students a colorful umbrella for protection from the rain.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Inns's classroom raised $168

This project is fully funded

My Project

Weather can be so unpredictable, one minute it can be clear and dry and the next it's raining cats and dogs.

Students would love to use their very own colorful compact umbrella to keep in their backpack.

Many students walk to and from school, but do not have the proper protection from rainy weather. The Silkfly Travel Folding Umbrella will be able a wonderful tool to have on hand and is small enough to fit in their backpack. In addition, Magic4U Kids Sunglasses will help protect their eyes during those bright, sunny days.
