My Project

We are ready to start school again and our classroom is in need of replenishing materials. We need art and social-emotional learning supplies that will help our preschoolers learn, create, and grow!

Many of our students come from a low-income community and may not have access to these types of materials outside of school.

Your support will help us create a classroom where every child has the tools they need to create, communicate, regulate their emotions, and feel successful at school.

The art materials such as construction paper , collage materials, floor seating for students, and wiggly eyes will give our 4- and 5-year-old students opportunities to express themselves, strengthen fine-motor skills, and explore their creativity through hands-on projects.

We are also requesting social-emotional resources, including fidgets, calming tools, and teacher materials. These supplies will help students learn to identify and manage their emotions, practice self-regulation, and develop positive classroom behaviors. The teacher resources will provide additional strategies and activities for creating a supportive, welcoming learning environment.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
