Give the Gift of Sound

Help me give my students the gift of sound by providing headphones and keeping them in good working condition.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Garrette's classroom raised $348

This project is fully funded

My Project

My social studies students need headphones in order to listen to digital resources that will help them receive individualized learning and help bring the world around them to life, especially since the majority of them have not experienced travel in real life. The majority of my students do not have access to basic supplies like headphones. There is a lot of wear and tear that comes with classroom use, so I also want to create a storage system that will help keep the headphones in good working condition and extend their usefulness beyond just one school year.
