This teacher needs your help!

Ms. Zeeger from Lancaster, PA is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Just the Basics!

Help me give my students basic school supplies like pencils, folders, and colored pencils. These supplies would be a huge help to my students and would give them the resources they need to learn and grow.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

As a passionate teacher, I want to make sure that all of my students have access to the resources they need to succeed. Unfortunately, many of my students come from low-income families and cannot afford the basic supplies they need.

These are essential tools that my students use every day in class, and having access to them would make a tremendous difference in their academic success.

Consider helping my students to have the resources they need to learn and grow. It would not only benefit them academically, but it would also boost their confidence and make them feel valued and supported.

Ms. Zeeger Burrowes Elementary School Grades 3-5

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
