Help me give my students basic supplies of Crayola crayons, white construction paper, and watercolor paints for a Rainbow Connections project.

I teach art to a wonderful group of students in Pre-k through grade 5. When my students see me in the hallway, they stop me and want to know what the next art project is. I have made it my mission to bring the best art supplies, technology, and art enrichment to my students.
We are a Title I school because 90% of our students receive free breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
We strive to help meet the needs of every student. We have academic clubs, after-school tutoring, and daily academic pull-out programs. Our students also have an after-school sports club with the local police to build teamwork and positive experiences in the community. These additional programs have helped our students, and they have done well on standardized tests.
We also have a well-rounded specials program with art, P.E., and media.
Due to the coronavirus, I will be teaching my art students using online technology. I'm in need of basic art supplies that my students families can pick up at my school with their food. My school has been designated a feeding site for families to pick up meals on the go safely. Over 90% my students receive free or reduced-priced breakfast and lunch.
The basic materials I'm requesting are: Crayola Crayons, watercolors, and white construction paper for an online rainbow course and more.
Many of my students are lacking and I want them to continue with an enriching art program.
Students will send me a photograph of their completed works via email and then share with their families. They can also post their rainbows in their windows so neighbors can see their beautiful works. I'm also excited about communicating with my students and discussing their works.
I'm making it my mission to provide the best materials in the process of creation through these challenging times of social distancing.
