Classroom Supplies

Help me give my students the supplies we need for a great school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Baker's classroom raised $157

My Project

Many of my kids come from low-income housing. My school is a Title I-funded school with limited resources and supplies. Despite their challenges, my kids love learning, and they love being at school. I have a classroom filled with little kids who are eager to learn but do not always have the resources to help them reach their full potential. I want to encourage them to learn and grow throughout the school year.

Many of my students' guardians are not always able to afford classroom supplies.

In an attempt to rectify this problem, I have always purchased supplies for my students and for the classroom. I am always more than willing to provide my students with the resources they need in order for them to be successful.

Construction paper, scented markers, and erasers might not seem like a big deal, but they play a large role in our classroom
