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

Though my students are little; they work hard to do it big. Big music, big singing, big theatrics and overall big performances! We are asking that you match their energy and efforts with your support. Help us purchase items that will bring a classic and lovely story to life on stage. We are embarking on our schools 8th annual Spring Musical, “Matilda”. You can help to make this year’s show our best by supporting arts learning. Arts learning is often overlooked and underfunded but it is so important! It helps our children discover, and display their talents and abilities, build confidence, create memories that last a lifetime, build experiences for future endeavors and possess great joy! Your support will help us purchase supplies to create costumes, scenery and props that will help to enhance our show. Partner with us to present music, magic and “Matilda”!
