Make Our Voices Heard: Help Us With Our First Performance!
Help me give my students microphones to empower them for their first performance!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pizzuto's classroom raised $631
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students are gearing up to perform in their first ever musical, Shrek Jr.! We are excited to showcase their hard work and creativity! Most importantly, they are eager to perform live on stage in front of their family, friends and teachers.
My students have multiple disabilities and participating in this musical is a unique and empowering opportunity for them.
Unfortunately, our school has limited technology in order to make student voices heard on stage. Your generous donation will help fund microphones for the stage that will allow every single student to shine! We will be able to utilize these microphones for many more productions to come! For my students, this performance is more than just a chance to sing and act - it’s an opportunity to build confidence, develop their social skills, and experience the joy of being part of something special. Your support will help us create an inclusive and empowering experience for all of them!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
