Help me give my students the gear they need to excel in outdoor sports and survival activities. These Igloo gloves will assist mightily in making warm hands and hearts.
My students are all Athabaskan Natives, living in the small village of Northway which is about a 35 miles from the Canadian border. This is a low-income area and finding funding to start new and interesting activities can be difficult.
There is a whole new world out there that these students have not been often provided with a vision of what they can see and experience.
They live in one of the most beautiful areas of the world, backed up to the Rangel-St. Elias National Park. Assisting these young men and women to better the quality of their education will be pivotal in directing the path that their lives take.
My Project
In one of the coldest places on earth, in fact today it is -57, it’s important to keep kids active and often outside. The environment here is a little unforgiving and we need your support to keep hands warm and spirits lifted.
Help us with these aptly named Igloo gloves and warming hands.
This is a simple request for what appears to be a simple item, but the lack thereof could be the means for kids to be outside and learning about their environment and understanding their world.
Thank you for your support and your caring for our kids. We love you.
