Resources for Needy Cheer Team

Help me give my students the necessary tools to help support and fund their upcoming cheer season.

My Project

Being in a low-income poverty community can be a challenge. The supplies I am requesting for my cheerleaders are things we need to start our upcoming cheer season, along with building their skills of athleticism. The goal for this project is to fully fund the cheer team needs without having to hassle their parents out of funds. This team is special because they will be the first middle school in the area to learn beginning tumbling skills but also succeed so they can move forward to competitive cheer. However, help is needed to work on in house skills and to build our home gym with equipment.
