Rebuilding the Classroom

Help me give my students the materials and toys they lost due to an unfortunate circumstance.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. G.'s classroom raised $359

My Project

My students are amazing, brave, and courageous. They face obstacles we never even think about on a day to day basis and sometimes take for granted in our lives. My students have severe and profound cognitive disabilities. They need a lot of hands on materials, and multiple sensory sensory breaks with light up and musical materials. We recently lost a lot of our materials due to an unforeseen circumstance. My students face so many obstacles in their lives on a day to day basis I want them to be able to succeed, have fun, and feel safe when they are in the four walls of my classroom.

Ms. G. Neil Elementary School Grades 3-5
