Supplies Needed for a Successful School Year!

Help me give my students basic school supplies to begin next school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O'Brien's classroom raised $346

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students come from an impoverished, crime-ridden, violent area. My students come to school every day eager and ready to learn; however, many of them lack the necessary supplies for success. I am asking for basic school supplies, including notebooks, crayons, glue sticks, tissues, pencil cases, erasers, and pencils. Every student deserves new supplies for the start of a new school year. These supplies will help my students be ready and well-equipped to tackle a new school year in the fall.

Giving my students this gift will help them have all the basic and necessary supplies needed to be successful throughout the school year.
