My Project

Wow! We are ready to color our world beautiful!

My students will be able to write, read, and add color to their lessons with the cool and colorful supplies on our wish list!

These students deserve so much more than what they currently have! It is my desire to open up a whole new world for them by extending opportunities to express themselves academically, socially, and artistically!

I am so excited to bring color into the classroom for my little scholars! I love watching them beam with excitement when we open up craft supplies to create fun and exciting art projects!

With our new supplies, we will be able to brighten up our days in the classroom! Thank you in advance for adding joy and splashes of color to our world with your generous donations.
