My Project

My second graders love expressing themselves through art! We use markers daily to add color and creativity to our work, but our supply is running low. We also need magnets to proudly display our masterpieces in our classroom.

Art helps my students build confidence, express emotions, and bring learning to life.

Whether illustrating a story, designing a math poster, or creating a personal masterpiece, they take great pride in their work. Having fresh markers will keep their creativity flowing, and magnets will allow us to turn our classroom into a vibrant gallery.

With your support, my students can continue to bring their ideas to life and share their artwork with pride. Every contribution makes a difference—thank you for helping us keep creativity alive!
