Learning Should Be Colorful

Help me give my students the ability to print in color for their educational experiences.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Welker's classroom raised $418

This project is fully funded

My Project

Students deserve materials that show color as the world around us does. I currently do not have the ability to print projects in color unless I use my home printer.

So far this year I have spent over $500 to print in color for my classroom with more to print yet.

We live life colorfully and having the ability to provide resources that reflect realistic photos or colorful illustrations and text effects that support students with learning disabilities would be made possible with this exponentially more affordable printer. Low income should not equate to low opportunity to have engaging materials for my students.
