This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
If you want to see terrific kids, help fund our project and see the pictures of my class. These children are so fun-loving and full of life. Each day, not only are they learning, I am also learning new things from them.
Many of these children come from low-income homes.
It is very hard for them to get supplies and the items they need to help them in life. They deserve to have the very best. They attend a wonderful school; however, like many schools, money has become an issue.
My Project
Our school has a basketball team. The kids have shorts and shirts that we were able to get last year from amazing donors on DonorsChoose.org. We need pants to go over the shorts. Many of the children can't afford to buy pants. We want them to be part of the team and not feel left out when they are wearing older pants. Keeping the children warm getting to and from basketball is very important. The children feel great when they are all wearing the same clothes. Thank you for taking the time to read our proposal. You can make a difference in their lives.
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
As a teacher-founded nonprofit, we're trusted by thousands of teachers and supporters across the country. This classroom request for funding was created by Ms. Greene and reviewed by the DonorsChoose team.
