My Project

Please help fund a project that will help my middle school students have a hands-on experience learning about the anatomy of living organisms! My students are eager to learn and are looking forward to this opportunity. I have done these dissections with my classes in previous years, and the students still talk about the experiences they had. The dissection kits will make their learning experience more engaging and have a profound impact on their middle school experience.

Your donations will reach approximately 50 students from South Philadelphia.

Your generosity will not be wasted as these students will have an experience that not many middle school students get, especially in Philadelphia. Thank you in advance.
