Help me give my students to get quality sharpeners so they can have a nice pencil to draw with, rather than holding their art work in the middle and waiting for the teachers to do the job.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hema Dey's classroom raised $184

My Project
I'm seeking basic art supplies for my classroom. I am truly inspired by my students' enthusiasm for learning new art skills while having a lot of fun.
The majority of students at my school are English language learners.
Witnessing the universal language of art come to life through their creations, is truly amazing. I aim to provide my students with the opportunity to explore new materials and broaden their artistic horizons. Recently, they have expressed a keen interest in using glitter glue pens to add intricate details to their masterpieces. As an art teacher, I find immense rewards in witnessing my students problem-solve and gain confidence in expressing themselves.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
