I See Myself Here, Play Part 2

Help me give my students more beautiful dolls that reflect and celebrate them!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lyke's classroom raised $395

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our students come from diverse physical, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds, and we believe that it’s essential for them to see themselves reflected in the materials and activities they engage with. As part of our ongoing commitment to fostering an inclusive and empathetic environment, we are looking to expand our collection of dolls that represent a wide range of physical attributes, cultural identities, and diverse backgrounds.

These dolls will play a key role in helping our students develop critical social-emotional skills, such as empathy, self-awareness, and respect for others.

Through guided play, our students can better understand different perspectives, build stronger connections with one another, and appreciate the richness of diversity that surrounds them. The twinkle lights will help to illuminate our beautiful doll house!

We are kindly requesting donations to help us purchase additional dolls that reflect the diversity of our student body.
