Confident Students with a Splash of Color!

Help me give my students brand new painting materials for brain breaks, creativity, and self-expression!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

New painting supplies will help students concentrate on learning and not on who still has a paint palette to borrow. Sharing watercolor materials can be very challenging since you need so many materials for one project.

Having these materials will send the message to my scholars that they are important and deserve to have new and durable materials for their important work!

My students have the enormous task of learning to read and write in the coming year. These new painting materials will help my students to take a brain break, relax and pause on the learning journey. They can also continue to be engaged and paint what we are learning! The possibilities are endless!

Thank you for supporting my students by knocking down the barrier to resources that are necessary for their success.

I very much appreciate your consideration in this matter and sincerely hope you will view my request favorably and provide the needed funds.
