Help me give my students pencils and snacks to finish the year strong.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Small's classroom raised $343
This project is fully funded
My Project
We are coming to the end of the school year and the cabinet is empty! The supply of pencils is empty, the kids have been unable to find even the scraps left on the floor in the halls. We are soon to the point of sharing pencils while we try to get work done in class. We need new pencils!
The students come in daily and ask for a pencil or a snack, my stash is gone and needs replacing!
The kids who ask me for a snack are sometimes struggling to focus, and having a little nibble of something to eat helps them get their brains engaged in their learning.
Thank you for helping me make the most of our time together in the classroom!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
