Art Supplies for Middle Schoolers in Need

Help me give my students the supplies they need to work with multiple mediums of art and love the projects they create.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Borrega's classroom raised $999

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are little emerging artists that love to get their hands dirty in making art projects. Most come from challenging home lives, so art class is a way that they get away from the struggles they face, even if it is a short time. They are learning about creativity and creative problem solving through the projects they make. Most students will take their projects home to show off to family and friends.

Our school is comprised of about 45% Native American students and we are a Title I school, with many receiving free lunch, so most students can't buy their own art supplies to use for school projects.

My Project

These resources will help my students make projects that can help improve their emotional and physical well-being during a time that is hard for them. The requested supplies will enable them to complete a wide variety of art projects and also progress their learning about art, cultures, art movements, and many other things by providing them with the tools to learn.

Art heals during a time when students need some healing and help.

With these supplies we will be able to do some fun and eventful activities that will leave the students with smiles on their faces throughout the day.
