As the Color Fades, Part 1

Help me give my students new color ink cartridges for our printer so that they can continue to see things in color.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Foots's classroom raised $301

This project is fully funded

My Project

In 2019, during the COVID pandemic, this community blessed my music program with a color ink jet printer. This machine made a tremendous difference back then by protecting my students from the virus since regulations stated that everyone was to have their own copy of anything that was handed out. Since then it has brightened our lives with beautiful color materials that we utilize daily in our music program.

New toner cartridges will allow us to continue to enjoy this wonderful blessing by printing materials as they are meant to be seen - in full color.

My students and I would appreciate the help of this community again so that we can continue to enjoy using this printer.

Thank you as always for your interest in my students and your support of my music program.
