Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

With the weather getting hot in Alabama, our students often ask for a drink or juice while at school. Some children are unable to bring a drink from home, so I am wanting to provide one for them. Nothing is worse than seeing a child without something that everyone else has. I usually provide things that they need, but having these available in the classroom already would be such a great help to me and a blessing to my students. Any donations to my classroom and this project would be greatly appreciated,
