Refrigerator Needed for Classroom and School Functions!

Help me give my students an Amana refrigerator/freezer combo to store food, drinks, and snacks!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. DeSorbo's classroom raised $1,314

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school refrigerator is outdated, and it cannot hold much for the amount of students we have in our school. We have several students with diabetes that we need to store special drinks/snacks for. We also have functions where we need a place to put ice cream, fruits, drinks, and other snacks that must be refrigerated.

I am requesting the Amana refrigerator/freezer combo to help store cold items for parties and every day use!

Teachers need to store items for students who have diabetes and other health conditions. This refrigerator will help us keep drinks, fruits, and other items cold for when a student may need it. We also host class parties and school functions where we need to store ice cream, drinks and snacks. Right now, we do not have the space. We also have PBIS celebrations, so the refrigerator will be used to hold items for our celebrations! This Amana refrigerator will help with the needs our school has! Thank you for your support!
