Help me give my students water bottles to stay hydrated in gym class because we do not have water fountains and students often get thirsty and need water.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Velez's classroom raised $161

My Project
We are in need of water bottles for the students in my classroom. Students always ask me for water, but buying bottles becomes a huge expense out of my personal pockets. Learning and listening is very hard when you are thirsty and work very hard in class. I am asking for water bottles to hand out whenever a student wants one. I am hoping these water bottles will help keep my students hydrated.
My students are also on different medications which make them thirsty.
I need a supply of water bottles in the classroom to be able to give them throughout the day when their mouth feels dry. This helps them to feel more comfortable throughout the day.
More than three‑quarters of 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
