My Project

My students are hard workers and know a lot about making do with what they have. We live in the poorest county in our state, so resources are hard to come by. Nevertheless, my children always find a way to make it happen!

I want to give them access to candy and resources that they wouldn’t ordinarily have.

Basic resources like cleaning wipes, tissues, pre-sharpened pencils, and markers will help make sure that our school day is smooth and effective. Not only that, but it will put my students on an even playing field with other children who already have access to these resources. I want to give them every opportunity that I can to be successful. Please help give our class the bare necessities!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
