Help me give my students a class set (25) of headphones and a new pencil sharpener. Many of my students never received their own headphones, and many have already quit working. Our sharpener has stopped working completely.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Many of my students need headphones to be successful in their learning. Students in my class who have accommodations will benefit from using these headphones helping them listen to what is being read to them on a daily basis. We use headphones during state testing, as well as during our independent work time to help them focus on their online lessons. Unfortunately, most of our headphones have dwindled this year, where a few are still working with sound coming from one side, and others are in terrible shape.
We also need a new pencil sharpener after our electric sharpener has completely stopped working.
It has been a challenge having 25 students take turns using a manual sharpener as it is time-consuming. This new sharpener will allow us to have more time to focus on our learning, rather than spending most of the time interrupting our lesson to sharpen their pencils.
Your help in contributing to this project so my students can succeed in their learning is greatly appreciated.
