I’m excited to share an opportunity to support my incredible high school students with the essential school supplies they need to thrive. As an educator, I’m committed to creating a dynamic, engaging learning environment—but many of my students face challenges accessing basic materials that are vital for their success.
Our classroom is full of curious, motivated learners eager to explore new ideas and build their skills.
However, we’re in need of everyday supplies like notebooks, technology tools and organizational tools. These resources are essential for hands-on activities, creative projects, and staying engaged throughout the school day.
With your generous support, I can make sure every student has the tools they need to participate fully in class, stay organized, and express themselves with confidence. Your contribution will have a direct impact on their academic growth, boost their self-esteem, and help create a classroom where learning truly flourishes.
Thank you for considering our project. Your kindness and generosity will make a lasting difference in the lives of my students!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
