My Project

My math students work hard daily to build skills and confidence, but sometimes, they face obstacles like hunger or a lack of supplies. To support them, I need binders for organization, pencils for classwork, and snacks to keep them energized.

Binders will help my students keep track of their notes and assignments.

Pencils ensure every student can participate fully in lessons, and snacks will help them focus by providing the fuel they need to learn.

Your donation will make a big difference in helping my students succeed in math and beyond. Every pencil, binder, and snack gets them one step closer to reaching their potential.
