Help Our Baltimore Students Shine With Essential Supplies

Help me give my students greatly needed supplies for keeping their classroom environment clean and organized! We need tissues, hand sanitizer, magnets, and highlighters!

My Project

I'm reaching out to our wonderful community for a little help. I teach at a Title I school in Baltimore City, where many of our students come from low-income families and face additional challenges. My students are eager learners, but we're running low on some everyday essentials like hand sanitizer, tissues, and paperclips. In addition, my students love using highlighters during their reading, so I wanted to get a multi-pack of colors to bring their note-taking to the next level!

These supplies are crucial for keeping our classroom clean, organized, and ready for learning.

If you're able to contribute, I'd truly appreciate it. Your support helps ensure that every student has the tools they need to succeed. Thank you so much for considering a donation to our classroom!
