Classroom Needs

Help me give my students some of the things we need for our class that didn't get fully funded through other projects

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Willis's classroom raised $176

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 Project

First, I want to thank you for supporting classrooms like mine your generosity has made such a difference in the lives of our students. I’m reaching out to share a little more about this project and why it matters so much.

In the past, we’ve been incredibly fortunate to receive full funding for some of our classroom needs.

However, this particular project is different. Instead of having the full amount covered, we’re trying to make it work by piecing together the remaining funds from previous partially funded projects. It’s a bit like trying to build something meaningful with puzzle pieces that don’t quite fit we're doing our best to stretch every dollar, but we’re still short of what we need to make this experience whole for our students because projects have miniums.

The students I work with show up every day ready to learn, even when the world doesn’t always meet them with the same energy or resources. I don’t want them to miss out on opportunities simply because we couldn’t secure the final bit of funding. Every contribution no matter the size brings us closer to giving them the tools, support, and joy they deserve.

If you feel moved to help close the gap, please know that your donation will go directly toward creating a richer, more equitable learning environment. You’re not just funding supplies — you’re helping build confidence, engagement, and a love of learning that lasts far beyond the classroom.
