Mrs. O. from OK is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Basic Classroom Necessities

Help me give my students basic classroom necessities (printer, colored paper, ink, clipboards) that will help with day to day school projects and activities.

My Students

The students in my district are truly one of a kind!

More than fifty percent of the student body come from low socioeconomic backgrounds, but instead of allowing this to negatively impact their education, they beat the odds.

This overcomer mindset helps make the most of their educational experiences, which not only positively impacts their lives but also the lives of future generations.

My Project

The basic classroom necessities that I am requesting for my students are greatly needed. I already know that each and every item will be put to good use and not go to waste.

I am asking for a range of supplies, from toner cartridges, clipboards, colored paper/ card stock reams, and a colored printer; all of which are equally important.

Each of the donations to this project will help make completing projects much easier for students and staff alike. By having the necessary supplies, students will be able to complete many projects at school as opposed to home.

Your support will help make this project a reality, and I greatly appreciate it.

Mrs. O.
