$485 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

My Students

My classroom consists of 25, eager-to-learn, third graders. Our classroom is filled with lifelong, diverse, enthusiastic, kind learners. We motivate and encourage one another to be ourselves and to learn from one another. No one is afraid to make mistakes because students know that this is how we learn. We work together to achieve success! We celebrate the uniqueness and diversity that we all bring to the classroom.

We are a large, urban, public, K-8 school with close to 1,000 students in the heart of the city.

Many students receive free breakfast and lunch due to economic hardship. We are extremely caring and supportive of one another. It is a great place to be!

My Project

Remote learning has been a challenge. My students miss pencils and paper. Learning through a computer is extremely hard for many. I want to send basic classroom supplies to my students.

Through the United States Postal Service, I will be able to send my students basic classroom supplies to support their learning at home.

I need postage for Flat Rate Boxes to send my students remote learning essentials. With your help, each student will receive a distance learning supply package that includes pencils, a notebook, colored pencils, crayons, a whiteboard, a dry erase marker, an activity book, and multiplication flashcards. My students would be overjoyed to know so many people care about them especially during these hard times.
