Help Bring Creativity to Life: Art Supplies NEEDED!

Help me give my students by providing essential art supplies for my low-income high school students, giving them the tools to create, express themselves, and build a brighter future.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Schneider's classroom raised $1,992

This project is fully funded

My Project

Art has the power to inspire, heal, and transform—but for many of my students, access to quality art supplies is a luxury they simply can’t afford. I teach visual arts at a low-income high school where my students have incredible passion and creativity, but limited resources to bring their ideas to life.

I’m raising funds to provide an assortment of essential art supplies so that every student, regardless of their financial situation, can fully engage in hands-on artistic exploration.

These materials will allow them to develop technical skills, express themselves, and build a portfolio for college or future careers in the arts.

Your donation, no matter the size, directly impacts these students by giving them the tools they need to grow as artists and thinkers. Every dollar contributes to fostering creativity, confidence, and opportunity in the classroom.

Please consider donating today to help us create, learn, and dream big. Thank you for supporting the next generation of artists!
