Spreading Joy and Kindness Through the Community!

Help me give my students the ability to spread kindness throughout the community by creating drawings, posters, art projects, and cards for community workers in our neighborhood!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Centrone's classroom raised $499

This project is fully funded

My Project

The students in my classroom will be able to spread kindness to many different members in their community. They will use the markers, other various writing materials, and paper to create cards, posters, and books to show our gratitude for all the hard work that the workers in our community do on a daily basis. This will include the librarians, firefighters, police officers, sanitation workers, our neighborhood healthcare workers, and workers in our local grocery stores. This school year, it is my goal to encourage my students to spread joy, kindness, and appreciation to those who do so much for us. It is my hope that through this project, I will be able to teach my students empathy and compassion so that they can carry on these skills throughout their lives.
