Great Kids in Need of Supplies

Help me give my students school supplies, so they can be successful learners.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parodi's classroom raised $259

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Giving students the supplies they need opens doors to a world that many cannot afford to access. These supplies will provide my students with the basic tools to be successful in class and organize their work. Students can work in small groups or with a partner to complete assignments and showcase it around the room. Having pencils, markers, and glue is essential when doing classwork and projects. My kids will be so appreciative if you can donate to our class.

There is nothing worse than being a kid and coming to school without supplies.

Help me, help them, so they can feel like they are prepared to learn and be successful.
