Help Heritage Elementary Ogden UT

We're a group of college students who are donating an aquarium to Mrs. Edgell's 5th grade class at Heritage Elementary School, located in a low income neighborhood of Ogden, Utah. The cost of the aquarium will be about $500 once it's fully stocked and we're asking for help raising that money.

Two clown fish, along with a tank full of shrimp, snails and crabs, are waiting to be taken to their new home among a classroom of inquisitive kids. This aquarium will be a learning tool for the kids, not only teaching them about aquatic life but also teaching them responsibility.

We want to give something back to our community and we thought an aquarium would be a unique and fun addition to Mrs. Edgell's class. If you feel the same way, please donate what you can so we can reach our goal.

Thank you! 

We have overseen the Trout in the Classroom program every year. Currently there are 12 aquariums in Logan to park city, Heber and the Salt Lake area. Each tank is sponsored and initial costs are paid for by the sponsor. (We donate a bunch for each tank) then every year, in coordination with the DWR, the tanks are setup, and then trout eggs are placed in them. The kids are able to see the eggs hatch, then after they have grown for the remainder of the school year, the trout are released into a water chosen by the DWR, and the tanks are taken down and cleaned and prepared for the next year.

If you want more information about the program, or are interested in helping through sponsorship, feel free to send us a message.

How will the tank be cared for during summer break
