Make Arts and Crafts Happen in Our Classroom

My students need paints, play dough, and no-spill paint cups for arts and crafts.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ramos's classroom raised $157

This project is fully funded

My Students

My four-year old students love coming to school everyday! They all look forward to "Fun Fridays", where they get to paint or create projects. But since we have limited supplies, "Fun Fridays" does not happen every week.

My pre-k students like to be busy at all times.

They love hands-on learning to express their creativity. They have an amazing eagerness to learn and it can only happen when we have supplies that we need. Our school is in a high need area and most of my students are from low-income families.

My Project

The best part of "Fun Fridays" is painting and project making! The supplies we request will make it happen. The students like to express their creativity on the white canvass and imagine the pride and confidence they exude when they show their creation.

We invite you to be a part of our "Fun Fridays".

Help us get paints and play dough to keep our hands busy. Let us express our creativity by donating the much needed painting supplies.
