First-year Teacher Seeking Essential Classroom Supplies to Support Student Learning

Help me give my students support for essential classroom supplies.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lowe's classroom raised $180

This project is fully funded

My Project

As a first-year teacher, I’m eager to create a classroom environment that supports learning, creativity, and confidence. Many of my students come from low-income backgrounds and don’t always have access to basic materials like pencils, folders, or notebooks. By providing these essential supplies, I can ensure every student starts each day prepared and ready to learn. These tools will help them stay organized, complete assignments, and engage more fully in class activities. I also hope to include some hands-on materials like whiteboards, math manipulatives, and art supplies to make lessons more interactive and enjoyable.

My goal is to build a welcoming, well-equipped space where students feel motivated and proud of their work.

I want them to know they are supported and valued. What makes my students special is their resilience, curiosity, and kindness. They are eager to learn and bring so much personality to the classroom. With your support, I can give them the tools they need to grow and succeed this school year and beyond.
