My Project

This project is for our Athletic and Physical Education Department. We would like to make jerseys for the sport students participate in and for the PE class but monetary resources are extremely scarce. This project provides our school a a screen printing machine, printing kits, and shirts to create what we do not have and teach a skill that students can use in the future. The goal is to ensure students have a shirt to wear for Physical Education class and for student athletes to create their own jerseys during the fall, winter and spring seasons.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
