Serving Up A Cup Of Goodness

Help me give my students the supplies so that they can begin their very own coffee cart!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cain's classroom raised $557

This project is fully funded

My Project

My class is a very special group of young students. They all participate in the THRIVE program within the school. The THRIVE program stands for Transformational experience, Healthy lifestyle, Responsible risks, Interdependence, Vocational employment, and Educational success.

The Thrive Program was created to provide an individualized and student-centered high school experience that ensures meaningful outcomes for our students.

The program consists of rigorous academic content as well as well-rounded vocational and daily living skills to help prepare our students for their future.

We would like to purchase the supplies to begin our very own coffee cart. With your donation we will be able to start a self-sufficient coffee cart for our classroom. We will use the money we make from the start up to purchase more supplies so that we can continue to have a coffee cart in the following years. Our classroom will take orders, make coffee, deliver orders within the building, and count money all as part of this experience.
