Help me give my students proper footwear for the upcoming cross country and track seasons!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Van Houten's classroom raised $938
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The weather may not have cooled yet, but the fall sports seasons are upon us! This fall we will be offering cross-country for the first time! Donations to our newest team sport will help students have proper footwear for the cross country and track season while also giving students proper footwear to train on.
These shoes from New Balance, Asics, Nike, Puma, and Saucony will ensure we are ready to compete in all seasons throughout the school year.
By donating to our cause you will help set up our team for success in our first year of competition. Not only will this help our team run fast and safely, but also run in style.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
