Our dramatic Play center is lacking some essential pieces for this all-girls class to experience real life skills in a playful way. Normally, a kitchen is not functional without a refrigerator and a sink. Although they are trying to make the best of the situation, I know the complete playful, joyful experience is inadequate. At this time, I am unable to fund a sink, a refrigerator and other much needed school items out of my pocket. Donors Choose is our greatest hope at this time.
Any and all donations will be greatly appreciated.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
