My Project

My 3 & 4th graders struggle with balancing their school and home life. So I created this idea to gather some of the coolest incentives, to meet them where they are and skyrocket them into success. My students are very capable of being outstanding and they could use a little motivation. That’s where this project comes in. The funding of this project, will ensure that students have a diverse selection of incentive, predominantly chosen by them and for them.

Your donation will directly motivate my students towards being the best versions of themselves, and push beyond their personal struggles.
