$23,000 Goal

Our latest project includes supporting the 6-12 grade magnet students at Arthur & Polly Mays 6-12 Conservatory of the Arts in Goulds, FL, an under-resourced community. In just a few months, our Club has been able to provide over $9,000 of in-kind donations that have helped the students succeed in both their art magnet programs and academic subjects. 

We have donated: a refrigerator, school supplies, fabric, an acoustic guitar, tri-pods, metronomes, instrument tuners, headphones, writing tablets, food for their food pantry, laptops, scrunchies, scented sprays, deodorant, and scented wipes.

We are also currently planning a fully irrigated garden area with the help of University of Florida's Extension Center.
