It's True! All We Need: One Child, One Book...

Help me give my students the opportunity to change the world with basic classroom essentials!

My Project

Please help us create an environment with simple classroom essentials.

We all remember the excitement we had on the first day of school.

Brand new books, sharpened pencils, and folders for each of our subjects create a feeling that we are all here for one purpose: to learn.

Not every child has the means to come prepared on the first day. Your donation will help provide a more equitable learning experience.

Help give our students that happy first day of school feeling. Being able to open up a brand new notebook with a sharpened pencil is all we need.

Mrs. p. South Richmond High School PS/IS 25R Grades 6-8
