My Project

As we prepare for the upcoming school year, we're seeking donations to help provide essential sensory materials and classroom must-haves that support our students’ learning and development. These resources, such as fidget tools, textured items, noise-canceling headphones, and basic teacher supplies, are vital for creating a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment. Your generosity will directly impact students’ success and ensure that every child feels supported and ready to learn. Any contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference.

I could not provide my classroom with these materials without generous donations from people like you!
