My Project

Gardening supplies are vital for my classroom. They offer hands-on learning experiences in science and responsibility. Donations of flower seeds, vegetable seeds, soil, pots, herbs, labels, and tools engage students in understanding nature and sustainability. A tarp is essential—it protects our classroom floor during messy activities, keeping everything tidy. Okra seeds add diversity to our learning, exposing students to different plants and cultural traditions in gardening.

My students are special, and they deserve the best!

Your donation is very well used in my classroom, and I am thankful for your thought towards my students.

Ms. Christel Mae Gapas
Grades 9-12
