My Project

As a first-grade teacher, I have submitted this project with the hope of receiving donations to support my students' success in art. Hungry students can become easily agitated, so the snack items included in the project will help avoid any hangry outbursts. The art supplies are essential for sparking creativity in my young scholars, as these items are used daily and quickly run out. My students hold a special place in my heart, and I feel incredibly fortunate to be their teacher. With the support of generous donations, I can provide my students with the tools they need to thrive and express themselves through art. Your contributions will significantly impact their educational journey, and I am genuinely grateful for any assistance you can provide.
