This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Chamberlain from Kenosha, WI is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Snacks, Books, and Knick Knacks!

Help me give my students access to books, snacks, and storage! They need a variety of books and snacks when they cannot afford to bring one, and storage that will help us stay organized.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chamberlain's classroom raised $1,137

This project is fully funded

My Project

The books, snacks, and storage items will help me meet many basic requirements for my classroom that I do not have! I appreciate as much support as possible, especially as a first-year teacher! I am working hard to purchase many of these essentials, but it does get quite expensive especially when I am trying to support myself outside of school! The kids would use these books as a source of free reading activities during class, and the snacks would greatly help my students who can’t afford to bring snacks for themselves each day due to financial difficulties.
