School Supplies For Everyone!

Help me give my students school supplies to replace the materials that are needed.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Iwanaka's classroom raised $750

My Project

The past few years have presented many challenges for my students, and I want to provide them with the resources they need to thrive in first grade. I am requesting ink for our printer, which will allow me to print colorful charts and games that make learning fun for all.

The students have worked tirelessly this quarter but are running low on essential supplies such as pencils, printer ink, lamination pouches, and dry-erase markers.

We need donations for school supplies and social-emotional learning books. These books foster a love of reading and help students develop empathy, understand and manage their emotions, and make sound decisions. These vital materials will enhance our students' learning experiences, making education more engaging and impactful.

Your investment in our students' education is invaluable and will help create a brighter future for these young learners, particularly after the challenges posed by COVID-19. Thank you for considering this request; your support is greatly appreciated.
