Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I teach special education students in kindergarten-3rd grade. My school is located in the heart of the inner city and has 87% minority enrollment. The students are almost entirely recipients of free and reduced-price lunch. Many of my students struggle with homelessness, food insecurity, and have parents with addictions.

My students work very hard, even though many of them have very little.

I want to give them the best opportunities for success and advocate for them in any way I can.

My Project

There is a sweet family who is in need this Christmas. There are five children who need clothes, shoes, toys, and basic necessities. I need your help to make this possible for the family! This wish list includes a doll and accessories for the youngest girl, a pair of sneakers for the teen girl, lego sets and warm coats for the middle school boys, and a nice backpack for school for the teen boy.

These children are grateful for anything they get, and I want to make this Christmas a memory they won't soon forget!

I would appreciate any help towards this goal as Christmas is quickly approaching. Thank you so much!
