My Project

My students love to create! Every year costs rise and I am unable to purchase the same amount of materials that I had purchased the previous year. This year, I created a donors choose project to possibly still be able to purchase materials to meet the needs that are typical of my students!

Rising costs in products and materials have made it impossible to purchase the annual needed materials for each school year, and I need your help to make it possible!

Thank you for considering helping us out with purchasing various coloring and paint products to help my student artists create!
