Back to the Basics!

Help me give my students basic supplies such as crayons, pencils, glue, and stickers to use during their therapy sessions!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Spitz's classroom raised $158

My Project

I am an occupational therapist, and I work with students ranging in age from kindergarten to eighth grade. We work on improving various skills, including fine motor skills, handwriting, visual perceptual skills, problem-solving skills, and following directions. We learn about all different topics such as STEM, money skills, life skills, community integration, etc...

We need to replenish our basic supplies to complete our sessions successfully!

Therefore, I am requesting supplies such as pencils, crayons, glue, and stickers. My students will use these supplies during their therapy sessions to help them meet their goals in a fun and exciting way!
