My Students

Do you remember what it was like to build with blocks? Do you remember what it was like to build a tower out of blocks? You can give my students those memories.

My preschool students come from low income, high poverty, and broken homes.

They are attending a school in a low income, high poverty, and high crime area. The school has very little funding, very little parent or community involvement. My students may come from harsh backgrounds, but they come every morning with a smile on their little faces ready to learn, explore, and grow.

My Project

These blocks and pipes will allow my students to escape their trouble daily life's and leap into their imaginations. They materials requested will allow them to build towers, castles, towns, houses, as well as build on their learning. They will be able to stack the blocks building on their fine and gross motor skills. The items will allow my students to stack up on their learning. Please help and thank you.

Please help my students build on their learning and imagination.

Please help give them the memory of building with blocks and allow them to take their imagination to a place free of their daily worries. Thank you for your times and your help.
