My students are wonderful and unique. Each student has a moderate to severe disability(s). They come to my class to acquire basic life skills needed to promote independence. I have 15 student students with special needs such as Autism and Down Syndrome. They strive to become as independent as possible and love practicing this during our daily cooking class. Unfortunely many of our appliances are broken. We lack many of the appliances needed to create the wonderful recipes that my students create. Please help these students and their desire to became more independent and display their creativity in the kitchen.
