My Project

The equipment that I am requesting is intended to help develop the Special Olympics Unified Sports program at my school. It will allow all students to develop an inclusive setting where they will be able to not just develop their athletic skills but also social skills that will help them grow and increase the abilities that will help them throughout their lives. It will not just help the school develop a greater understanding of inclusive education, but it will also reach out to local community members to create a better understanding of how students can add to the success of our society.
