Pencils For Everyone!

My students need a supply of pencils.

  • $292 goal

This project expired on January 6, 2010.

I am a New York 9th grade math teacher in high-needs school and I am in need of pencils.

My students have no pencils! They need to know that making mistakes is okay and its just part of learning. Pencils are so important for a math class.

I need pencils to give my students because they do not have them at home! My students deserve the opportunity to have pencils in their classroom.

Your donations will make it possible for my students to make mistakes and corrections with new pencils! Pencils are such a basic necessity that are missing in my classroom. Please help!
