My Project

The scholars that I teach are motivated and have a drive to be successful and great community leaders. They work hard and long to find success on all levels. This is why, a snow cone machine will make a huge difference in our organization.

Our organization is self-funded and the scholars can use a snow cone machine to sell snow cones at their events in order to raise funds to share their musical talents with the community more.

Everyone loves a good snow cone! Allowing my scholars to sell them and giving them full control of how they work their snow cone business is a great why to train and motivate young business men and women. Full empowerment as you raise funds to support your goals. How awesome does that sound?

Being a Title I school, teaching skills that will help young scholars be successful in life is our job. We must guide them in the ways of positivity and excitement. Thank you for your help with this amazing project.
