My Project

Please help me give my Speech students these everyday essentials that are frequently used and replaced often. The materials being requested are important for maintaining a clean and healthy therapy room, ensuring that my Speech students can learn in a safe environment. The other materials are commonly used items, such as sanitizer, tissues and disinfecting wipes, that are used often and frequently need to be replaced.

With your generous support, my students can have the basic school supplies and necessities needed to start this school year on the right track!
