My Project

The items that I chose are needed for my students to help them feel more comfortable and safe at school, their second home. For some students, school may be their only safe space so I want to make sure I make it exactly what they need. That includes cleaning supplies to keep germs away so students can stay healthy and be at school. Snacks are needed to keep their belly’s full. An empty stomach does not work well with learning brains, and some students don’t have access to the food they need. A cozy carpet is needed that we are able to relax and read a book on. Last but not least, paper towels are needed to clean up after ourselves. My students deserve the best education that I can provide for them, and your generous donations will help make that possible!
