My Project

The funding of this project will impact every student in my classroom by providing them with the tools that they need to be successful. The majority of my students are from impoverished families and they cannot afford the basic supplies needed to complete their daily classroom work. The funding of the pencils, crayons, binders, and notebooks in this project will help each child to have tools they need to feel accomplished and what a feeling that is for any child! Thank you for your consideration in helping funding this project, my students and I will be forever grateful!
