Ms. Willis from Paterson NJ is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Supply Me Up!

Help me give my students what they need to finish out the year. Working in an urban district with continuous cuts, supplies are greatly needed, yet often overlooked due to budget cuts and other demands.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

My Students

My third grade resource students attend an inner-city public school that consists of low-income families. Sadly, many of the students lack the resources and support to have technology experiences at home. Despite their home environment, they are very inquisitive and have a strong desire to learn.

School is the only place that offers opportunities for students to explore, interact, experience, and learn.

Unfortunately, with budget cuts, our school district is having difficulty providing the necessary provisions to help our students prepare and compete in the 21st century.

My Project

These materials will definitely make an impact on my students. Children come to school some times unprepared, which is beyond their control in certain instances. We have been in school now for 5 months, many of the supplies are all used, broken, missing, and or on its last tour. I strongly believe having this new supply of materials will provide students with a positive outlook on ending the school year strongly. Supplies provide student with necessary tools they need to succeed. Students won't have an excuse as to why they couldn't complete their work, as the supplies will be provided.
