Classroom Supplies

Help me give my students classroom materials to help them finish out the year. Students are at the halfway point of the year and are missing a lot of supplies that they need.

My Project

With the materials provided students will have access to materials that will help them in their day-to-day learning.

The printer paper will be used to help print out classroom work for students to complete each and every day.

Pencils (which is the most important) will allow for students to complete their work as most students come to school every day with no pencil and just a book bag.

By supporting this page, you will be investing into the education of many African American/ minority students and help provide them with the necessary and quality education they deserve.
