School Supplies Needed 2

Help me give my students fun school supplies for staring the school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chen's classroom raised $442

My Students

We are an inner-city magnet school. We have very motivated students who face many economic challenges. For example, many of our students work hours after school to help support their families. Some have to take care of their younger siblings or elders in their families. However, despite all the economic challenges they face at home, they still come to school every day and work hard for a better future. We have a 97-100% graduation rate. Most of our students will be going to college after they graduate from high school.

My Project

My classroom has faced many challenges. Occasionally, my students will come to school without needed supplies such as pencils, markers, or folders. Additionally, they lack the supplies that are needed for a math class. Donations of fun pencils and other school supplies will improve my classroom by letting my students have better access to utensils they cannot afford to have at home. Cleaning products like disinfectant wipes and tissues are needed during this pandemic to keep the classroom clean. Cameras and film are needed for fun classroom projects. This will also allow my student to borrow or even keep these supplies to complete their assignments at home and stay engaged. We have highly motivated students but they just need financial help with supplies to help them succeed.
