Kleenex and Pencils!

Help me give my students Kleenex and pencils to finish out the school year!

My Project

We are struggling to keep basic supplies such as Kleenex and Pencils stocked in our classrooms.

Please help give our students these basic supplies so they don't have to worry about not having what they need when they are in school.

During this time of the school year, so many students have stuffy noses and colds. Having enough Kleenex in the room helps to stop the spread of germs to other students so that we can keep our classrooms healthy!

Pencils are always needed. So many students are missing them and being able to just grab a pencil when they need it helps to minimize distractions and keep the students working.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
