My Project

I am a teacher in a Title I district, working with an incredible group of special needs students who are full of curiosity, creativity, and determination. Our classroom is a place where every small success is celebrated—and having the right tools makes a big difference in helping these students thrive.

We are in need of basic classroom supplies such as pencils, erasers, dry erase markers, whiteboard cleaner, and other Expo materials that support daily learning.

These items may seem simple, but they are used constantly and play a crucial role in helping students stay organized, engaged, and confident in their work.

Your generosity will help create a more structured, supportive learning environment where students can focus on what really matters—learning, growing, and reaching their potential. These supplies will allow me to meet their diverse needs more effectively and ensure that no student feels left behind due to a lack of resources.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and investment in our students’ education and future. Your support means the world to us.
