Colors of the World!

Help me give my students a variety of drawing tools to help them explore their creativity.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Keepers 1st Grade Classroom's classroom raised $280

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are eager to explore their artistic talents, but our school lacks basic drawing supplies. With your help, I can provide a variety of drawing tools for my students to use. The majority of my students' homes lack even the basic art supplies such as pencils and crayons.

When these children are given "exciting" drawing tools, their creativity, imagination, and excitement explode!!

A basic art project turns into something unique and special to each child. When children have more drawing tools they are able to explore and produce art work that they are proud of and feel confident in. They are able to find tune their creation!
