My Project

Have you ever seen kids playing outside without anything to do besides the jungle gym? It's CHAOS! I want to make sure we have different balls and activities for the kids to do outside so they can play and play nicely.

I am asking for soccer balls, basketballs, jump rope and playground balls to help the kids be able to play productively and have FUN at recess.

Having these materials will allow us to have enough for all of the kids. Please help us out if you are able! Thank you in advance for bringing FUN to our school!
