My Project

Last school year and this school year, generous donors and myself funded the birthday cup project for all the kindergarteners, and this school year and next, I’d love to for all the kindergartners at my school to have this special treat again.

Every child deserves to feel extra special on his or her birthday, and I’d like to make this happen by giving each student a birthday cup with treats and school supplies.

Students love getting birthday treats! At our school, parents are encouraged to send in goodie bags or a small snack for their child’s birthday, but not all parents can afford to do so. In the past, I gave my students a small treat bag, but this project has grown, and I now make sure that all students in Kindergarten receive a birthday cup. I’d like to continue to make sure that all Kindergarteners receive a cup at my school, but it is too much for me to do on my own.

The items that I am kindly requesting, such as pencils, bracelets, balloons, straws, bookmarks, colored pencils, small toys, and erasers, will nurture their academic skills, as well as their emotional well-being.

I thank you in advance for your generous donation that will bring many smiles to our kind kindergarten students.
