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

Having fresh materials at the start of the school year is a simple joy at school.

Please support this project to provide basic materials such as Plastic Pencil Box andCrayola Colors of the World Skin that are used frequently to complete STEM-Art activities in our MakerSpace.

Throughout the year these are the materials that are used for most of our activities and are often used up and need to be replenished. With a month left of school it would be amazing to have these materials for our final project of the year but if not having them to start the year out would be awesome!
