My Project

I am hoping to get your support in helping my students have different colored papers to work on, and folders to help keep themselves organized in the classroom. I am also trying to help supply them with snacks and hygiene products that match their growing needs.

With these materials not only will my students be able to be comfortable in order to focus on learning, they will also be able to stay organized in their pursuit of excellence!

With your amazing support my students will be able to have access to the supplies they need, and sometimes require in order to continue learning. Thank you!
