School Supply Reboot

Help me give my students a school supply reboot! (Pencils, crayons, and markers)

My Project

Help me give my students a big essential school supply reboot. My students come from low-income households and many come to school at the start of the year without their supplies.

This often causes us to run out of crayons, markers, and pencils partway through the year.

The parents that can, are generous enough to send some extra supplies in throughout the year randomly. However, it is not enough to allow the kids to color projects and be creative in their learning.

We appreciate all donations to help us restock our essential school supplies.

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
