Sparking Creativity at Home

Help me give my students engaging art supplies to use at home during this trying time!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jessika's classroom raised $598

This project is fully funded

My Students

Most of our student's families are low-income and have very little to work with. The children are creative and hands-on and will benefit immensely from having some art materials at home. I have been creating art activity videos for our students to watch with parents, using household and homemade materials. The children would enjoy having some quality art mediums to use at home.

My Project

These simple, but necessary, art supplies will provide the children in our program with a solid foundation to build upon while learning at home. By setting our children up with paper, markers, watercolor palettes, glue, and collage material, I hope to spark the children's creativity in engaging ways. We know how important art education is in a child's life, and by delivering these art supplies to each child, I believe we can make a huge difference in their at home learning. Please help us to deliver these materials to our deserving children!
