My Project

Many of my students come from low income families and they will definitely benefit from additional support when it comes to completing classwork and homework, especially in the area of writing. Having the right tools can make all the difference in helping them build confidence, independence, and a love for learning. I am seeking support to provide essential writing and printing supplies for my classroom. These materials include items such as pencils, writing tools, handwriting paper, ink and toner for printing, and other resources that allow me to create clear, accessible assignments tailored to my students’ individual needs. With these supplies, I can ensure that every student has the opportunity to fully participate in their learning both in school and at home.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
