My Project

Starting a new school year takes more than just great lessons—it takes the everyday supplies that help students learn, create, and stay organized.

All of these materials will help me to begin the school year with supplies that will elevate my classroom's atmosphere and learning space.

Our DonorsChoose project will provide basic classroom essentials such as paper, pencils, folders, and other student supplies to my 8th grade students will use throughout the year.

Your support will help ensure that students have the materials they need to:

Complete classwork and assignments

Stay organized and prepared

Participate fully in science activities

Focus on learning instead of worrying about supplies

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.

Nearly all students from low‑income households
