My Project

To help our pep squad shine, we're seeking items that will directly benefit our dedicated members. New hair bows will give us a unified, polished look that boosts their confidence and enhances our visual appeal, making every performance even more impactful. Durable tote bags are essential for our busy schedule, allowing the squad to transport spirit items with ease and efficiency to all our games and events.

Most importantly, a well-stocked first-aid kit will ensure the safety and well-being of our athletes.

It's vital to have the resources on hand to respond quickly to any minor injuries so our students can focus on supporting their team.

Finally, an iPad would be a game-changer for our practices. We could access digital routines, music, and instructional videos, making our sessions more dynamic and effective. The iPad would also allow the squad to create content to promote school spirit and share their activities with the community.
