Shoot and Spike With Nets and Carts

Help me give my students the items they need to be successful on the basketball and volleyball court with these nets and carts!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Berry's classroom raised $360

My Project

Our school was just taken back by the district. We don't have a lot of money to provide our students with the items that we need yet. Our volleyball and basketball teams need carts to store their volleyballs and basketballs. Our basketball team needs new nets for the baskets as the old ones are torn and hanging by just a few loops.

We have found that students who participate in sports do better in their academic classes.

We have a large population of students who want to be involved in team sports, now we just need the equipment for them! Our girl's basketball team went undefeated last year and we'd like to carry on that tradition this year!
