My Project

I am an ENL teacher in high school. Every school year, I go through a lot of pencils and folders and notebooks, as well as wipes and tissues. Your donations will make a direct and meaningful impact on student learning by ensuring they have the basic supplies necessary to focus, stay organized, and learn in a clean and supportive environment.

With these essential supplies, students can focus on their education without worrying about missing materials.

Your donation ensures that all students have what they need to succeed!

Providing wipes and tissues helps prevent the spread of germs, keeping students in school and ready to learn.

A simple pencil or a folder can mean the difference between participation and frustration. Folders help keep important papers, assignments, and notes in one place, reducing lost work and stress.
