Help me give my students the materials to create their very own sketchbooks!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Van's classroom raised $297
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I teach visual arts at an elementary school where more than 50% of students come from low-income households. It is my goal for my students to engage in art class without paying for any materials out of pocket.
This project is to provide every student with a sketchbook.
I often tell my students that we do not need expensive supplies to create amazing work. In my art class, we use sketchbooks for everything from warm-up drawings and practicing new skills, to brainstorming, sketching, and drafting for major projects. Every art student deserves a sketchbook to call their own. Your donations will help me keep my promise to provide every student with what they need for a well-rounded visual arts education free of charge to them.
Nearly all 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
