Education is the first step to overcoming poverty. However, back-to-school shopping can put a major strain on many of my students' family finances. The stress of feeling left out and different can lead to lack of focus. Being prepared keeps children motivated and excited. When children have their own school supplies, they can improve grades, creativity, attitudes towards learning, behavior, peer relationships and self-image. A single pack of pencils and paper could be the gateway to a bright promising career. It is crucial to make sure the leaders of the future are prepared today in schools!
