Future Artists

Help me give my students art supplies to help them express themselves in creative ways

My Project

I’m a speech pathologist at the best school ever! I work with amazing students who have unique communication needs. I would like this project to bring more art supplies into our sessions—things like markers, paints, construction paper, and stickers to create.

Art opens up new ways for my students to express themselves when words are hard to find.

Whether we’re drawing to tell a story or using visuals to model vocabulary, these hands-on tools make a big difference in how my students learn and grow.

With your support, I can make our speech sessions more engaging, expressive, and fun. Thank you for helping my students find their voices in creative ways
