New School Year Supplies

Help me give my students composition books, pencil pouches, hand sanitizer, and more for a fresh start to the school year!

My Students

My students are a creative group of young people. They are excited about learning and have a lot of energy! My school is located in a high crime, high poverty area of a large city.

School, oftentimes, is the only constant in these children's lives.

I try to provide a warm, comfortable environment for my students so they can learn without unnecessary stress.

School supplies are a necessity that many parents can not afford. Providing basic supplies for the school year can help alleviate some of the stress for my students and parents.

My Project

I would like to give my students a fresh start to the school year by providing the supplies they need. After 18 months of virtual learning, students will be back in the building and I would like to ease any worries with hand sanitizer, masks, Lysol wipes, and basic school supplies. All students will receive pencil cases filled with crayons, pencils, and colored pencils. They will also receive a notebook and folder for keeping their papers neat in their workspace. Please help my students begin this school year with the supplies they need.
