Help me give my students basic consumables to aid in their artistic creations!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Young's classroom raised $585

My Project

The visual arts classroom is a place where materials are used up left and right every day. It can be difficult to keep items that students need in stock, especially keeping a variety for students with disabilities that include sensory issues. For some students, art is the only social and emotional relief they have from outside stressors, or, as is the case with nonverbal students, it may be their main mode of communication.

With help from donors like you, my students have the opportunity to continue visually expressing themselves and never have to worry about if the art materials they need will be available.

Students in my classroom will be forever grateful for the opportunities you provide through your donations.
