My Project

Pease help me get t-shirts and shorts for my cheerleaders. They can wear this to the games and parades. This will be their attire before performances and at community service projects. We have ordered real cheerleader uniforms, but our funds did not allow for anything extra. We need pom poms to help entice our crowd.

Cheerleaders should represent in uniform at all times even if they are not in their actual cheer outfit.

Having these shorts, shirts, and pom poms will help to create unity as a team. We need your assistance in getting these needed items.
