Ms. B. from SC is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Dressing for Success!

Help me give my students confidence with navy blazers to compete at Future Business Leaders of America events. Students cannot compete without them. My students are extremely capable, but most cannot afford them.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students are a new FBLA Chapter and want the chance to compete at FBLA completions but cannot afford the professional FBLA Navy blazers they are required to wear at competition. We are asking for your help to create a classroom set of blazers so that students can borrow from year-to-year so they can look and feel confident that they are, indeed equal Future Business Leaders competitors.

This year as students prepared for our first competition, we depended on my family and collogues to clean out their closets for students to scrounge for needed items for competition.

I know in my heart, that your donation will help these very students achieve for themselves a financial position where they can and will donate or complete similar projects for similar students in the very near future.

Grades 9-12
