My Project
I am excited to embark on a creative journey with my students, and I need your support to make it happen. I am passionate about providing a rich and inclusive learning environment that fosters the unique talents and abilities of each child.
My project, "Building Little Artists," aims to enhance the artistic experiences of my students by supplying essential art materials.
These materials include watercolor paper, drawing paper, tempera paints, wooden people, pens, and more.
These resources will not only allow my students to explore their creativity but also provide them with a means of self-expression and communication.
Art plays a crucial role in the development of fine motor skills, cognitive abilities, and emotional expression. For children with special needs, it can be an especially powerful tool for breaking down barriers and promoting social interaction. By supporting this project, you are contributing to the growth and development of these young minds.
More than half of students from low‑income households
