Ms. Day from Atlanta GA is requesting materials related to Food, Clothing & Hygiene through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Abolishing Hunger and Warmth...Together

Help me give my students warmth and nutrition by providing an electric kettle to provide oatmeal, warming drinks, and instant lunches. Additional warmth will be found with providing hoodies to scholars in need. Together we can.

My Students

Life happens everyday. Life does not slow down because we are having a bad day. Life presses us to move forward. Life presents us with opportunities to advance, growth, and consistently become better versions of ourselves.

My students are LIFE.

They do not slow down. They refuse to be defined by labels such as "minorities", "low-income" or "free-reduced lunch" because while those are factual descriptions about our population, it does not scratch the surfaces of who they are in totality. Their neighborhood is one of love not necessarily financial means. Our school works to be a safe-haven EVERY DAY for scholars and parents who may need an additional sense of peace in their lives. We understand that while we do not boast the highest of incomes or achievements (YET), we are on our way. We still dream together. We create together. We build together. We learn together. We struggle and overcome together. We understand to our deepest core that TOGETHER we will be SUCCESSFUL.

Together we don't just live life...we are LIFE.

My Project

Winter is coming to Georgia and we must be prepared. On mornings where the rush to get to school outweighs scholars taking their time to grab their gloves, the electric kettle will await along with previously provided warming beverages. Students should never have to choose between school and nutrition. The granola bars, chips, vegan snacks, and cookies will assist us in battling hunger at any time of day. Hoodies will be personalized and provided to the scholars who may need an update or just need a warm option.

Winter is coming and preparedness is key.

We will always be proactive so that our students will suffer minimal barriers in the climb towards higher education.
