Help me give my students the most common items that we need to purchase and re-purchase more than once per school year.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nunez's classroom raised $292

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
The second-grade students at my school are enthusiastic learners who are filled with curiosity. They are highly energetic and active learners.
They are very motivated by hands-on experiences.
My class is 95 percent African-American with a majority from low-income families and a few English language learners who learn better with hands-on and real-life experiences in all subject areas. Our school is located in Canarsie - a great neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York.
Our school is a Title I school, and only allows a small amount of funding for classroom supplies and trips. It's never enough to cover the needs of our students in the classroom.
These children have amazing abilities, but just don’t have the resources to push their learning to the next level. They come into a classroom with the bare minimum of school supplies and knowledge. We do our best in order to make sure they achieve their potential. These supplies will help us to give them what they deserve! These students will be given the opportunity to shine and succeed in the upcoming school year.
My Project
This school year has been very challenging as many students were not able to purchase any of the items on the school supply list. Our teacher funds were eliminated as well this year. Most of our families do not have the means to purchase everything that we need. Now we are currently working remotely and do not have a return date to our schools. Running out of these common items makes effective learning much more complicated. If we always have a consistent supply of these items on hand, it would benefit both students and their families. Students will have some of the basic needs to continue learning at home and in the classroom this school year.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
