Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our project focuses on addressing the critical need for representation and creative expression among students in our community. By providing a diverse range of art supplies, including skin color markers, we aim to empower students to express themselves authentically and celebrate their cultural identity through art.

In a society where racial justice and inclusivity are paramount, it's essential to provide resources that promote positive self-image and creativity.

Your support will not only provide essential art materials but also foster a supportive environment where every student feels valued and heard. Together, we can create an inclusive space where all students can explore their identities and unleash their creativity through art.
