My Project

My amazing little learners are full of energy, creativity, and curiosity—but what we’re short on is a simple way to keep their supplies neat and organized. That’s why we hope to obtain donations to buy storage bins.

Our students are learning how to be independent and take care of their things—and your support makes that possible.

Right now, our classroom doesn't have enough clean and unbroken cubby storage baskets for each child’s things. Crayons, markers, extra clothes, and art projects are getting jumbled together, making it hard for the children to find what they need. Our block center manipulative storage containers are cracked and pose a safety threat to our students. With some new sturdy, colorful storage bins, we can create a space that’s cleaner, safer, and easier for the children to navigate.

Thank you for supporting my pre-kindergarten students.
