My Project

We are trying to keep our kids safe and moving. We have activity time before school, with lunch time, after school teams and clubs. Unfortunately the budget for these activities doesn't last.

We need soccer balls, basketballs and ball equipment to set up activities.

Kids who are active in clubs and sports do better in school. They also are more likely to lead active lives. That is the goal of our fitness department. Kids spend too much time on screens. The sports balls just do not last to everyday use.
