My Project

I’m reaching out to ask for your support in helping my students explore their creativity and imagination through hands-on art activities.

We're hoping to collect donations of the following materials:Markers (washable preferred), Construction paper (assorted colors), Glue sticks, Crayons, Play-Doh or modeling clay.

Many of my students thrive when given the chance to express themselves through art, but we are in need of essential supplies to make that possible.

These simple items go a long way in fostering creativity, confidence, and problem-solving skills in young learners. Whether it's building imaginative Play-Doh creatures, designing paper collages, or illustrating their own stories, these supplies help make learning come alive.

Any support—whether it's donating materials, contributing a gift card, or simply spreading the word—would be deeply appreciated by me and my students.

Thank you for considering supporting our classroom and helping us grow through creativity.

Warmly,

Ms. Jones
