Make Our Mark Through Art!

Help me give my students art supplies to make their mark through various art projects

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sara Porchetta's classroom raised $185

This project is fully funded

My Project

Teaching a classroom with students with autism who create and explore in different ways, art can help improve communication and self-expression. When completing art projects, it's evident that my students need more opportunities to express their thoughts and feelings. These art supplies can most definitely support our sensory activities for my children that have Autism. They love to get messy and creative by using their imagination.

These art supplies will help my students with autism by giving them flexibility with the materials they can use in order to complete the same project.
