My Project
My students walk into our Bronx classroom every day ready to learn, even though many face significant challenges outside of school. To support their academic and emotional growth, they need more than books and pencils—they need a clean, structured, and organized environment that promotes focus, calm, and success.
We are requesting basic organizational tools like storage bins, paper trays, shelf organizers, and supplies to help transform our space into a more functional and welcoming classroom.
A well-organized classroom helps students feel safe, focused, and proud of their learning space.
Many of my students face challenges outside the classroom that are beyond their control. But inside our room, we work hard to create structure, care, and consistency—because those things build confidence. With your help, we can give our students the organized space they deserve and need to succeed.
Thank you for considering a gift to our classroom. We truly appreciate your generosity and belief in our students' potential.
