Essential Supplies for Bright Young Minds

Help me give my students essential supplies and PE equipment to support their learning, creativity, and physical activity in a vibrant, well-equipped, and engaging classroom environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Leung's classroom raised $327

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are curious, creative, and full of potential! They come to school every day ready to learn, explore, and grow. We are a Title I school, which means the majority of our students come from low-income households. These supplies are essential tools for academic success that we would not have without your generosity.

In order for my students to fully engage in hands-on learning and express their ideas, we need a fresh stock of basic classroom supplies.

This project will provide our class with:

-Bright printable paper for dividing their interactive notebooks.

-Pencils, erasers, highlighters, and red, blue, green, and black pens to support daily writing, editing, and annotating skills.

-Dodgeballs and hula hoops give students essential opportunities for movement, teamwork, and healthy physical activity during PE. They help build coordination, social-emotional skills, and physical wellness—all of which directly impact focus and success in the classroom.

These aren’t just school supplies—they're tools for engagement, equity, and empowerment. With your support, every student in our classroom will have access to the materials they need to succeed academically, express their creativity, and feel confident in their work.
