Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our second grade class is in need of supplies which will feed our bodies and minds. Your gift will provide each student with snacks, spaces for learning and tools to grow emotionally. These donations provide our class the opportunity to learn from each other and keeping us nutritionally satisfied throughout the day. The chairs will be used during center times to create safe places for us to read and become greater readers and future leaders. Our class thanks you for your generosity and kindness. We thank you and appreciate your kindness.
