Basic School Supplies

Help me give my students basic school supplies like paper and pencils.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Friedman's classroom raised $670

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are great team players, and create a great community atmosphere. They are always willing to help each other, especially with school supplies. When we are short on school supplies such as paper, pencils, and pens, my students always share their supplies with each other.

My students are upstanding members of the community.

They would greatly benefit from additional school supplies in the classroom. All school supplies will be used to enhance their educational experience at school. Thank you for considering my submission.

My Project

My students go to school in an area where resources for school supplies are not always available. This project will help ameliorate many of the difficulties they face due to shortages of supplies.

This project will help me be able to provide supplies for my students instead of asking students to share with each other.

I and my students will be truly grateful to receive this essential support. My students will be able to complete their work more efficiently and increase their success in school. This will also help students raise their grades.
