My Project

Please help me give my students materials needed for a successful year. The books, notebooks, communication folders will help my newcomers with their English development while they learn to read and write.

My students are very hard working and try so hard while learning a second language.

It is remarkable how quickly they can learn English. My students would be so excited to get the books, so they can practice decoding and independently read.

Thank you for considering to donate to my project to help my newcomers become proficient in English. Their academic journey will start off on the right foot, thanks to you!
