Beginning of Year School Supplies

Help me give my students pencils, markers and other supplies needed to start the school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kinnevan's classroom raised $651

My Project

All of my students walk into school hoping for a fresh start and a classroom that feels welcoming, organized, and ready for learning. Many of them come without basic supplies—notebooks, pencils, or even a way to hang up their work. That’s where your support can make a huge difference.

With pencils and paper, my students can brainstorm ideas, take notes, and reflect on their learning every day.

Markers help us create colorful anchor charts and interactive visuals that bring history and geography to life. Double-sided tape and hooks might seem simple, but they help turn our classroom into a space where student work is displayed proudly—building ownership, motivation, and pride.

These supplies help create a classroom that is clean, creative, and full of learning. Your support will make sure every student feels prepared and seen, from the first day of school to the last.
