Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you on behalf of Kashmere Gardens Elementary.

One of the invaluable resources we have relied on to engage our students and families in various school events is our speaker system.

Whether it's literacy nights, pastries with parents, winter and spring showcases, or award ceremonies, our speaker system has been instrumental in amplifying the impact of these programs. It has helped create an atmosphere of enthusiasm and participation, enhancing the sense of community within our school.

Unfortunately, our speaker system recently malfunctioned, and due to financial constraints, our district is unable to allocate funds for its replacement. As a result, we find ourselves in a challenging situation where we risk being unable to continue hosting these vital events that promote student and family involvement.

This is where your generosity and support can make a tremendous difference. We are reaching out to kind-hearted individuals and organizations like yours, seeking donations to help us acquire a new speaker system. Your contribution, no matter the size, will directly benefit our students and community by enabling us to continue offering programs that are essential for their growth and success.

Your donation will not only provide us with a new speaker system but also reaffirm our belief in the power of community support and collaboration. Together, we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of the students and families we serve.
