This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
We are seeking a small but incredibly meaningful donation for our classroom—a high-quality pencil sharpener. A dependable sharpener can make a big difference in our students’ learning experience.
A sharp pencil is essential for note-taking, solving math problems, drawing diagrams, and expressing creative ideas.
Unfortunately, dull or broken pencils can interrupt their focus, slow down their work, and even cause frustration during critical learning moments. With a sturdy pencil sharpener, our students will be able to stay engaged, work efficiently, and produce their best efforts without unnecessary interruptions.
This simple tool will support dozens of young learners daily, creating a smoother, more productive learning environment where they can focus on what really matters—growing their skills and confidence.
Your donation will directly impact our students’ education, empowering them to succeed one sharp pencil at a time. Thank you for being a part of their journey
