My Project

This "Take Me to School" Donor's Choose Grant is a collective grant that will benefit all 250 students of our middle school. As you have probably uncovered via your news outlet of choice, school districts are struggling to allocate funds for even the smallest of items such as basic school supplies. Help us provide our middle school students with simple supplies that will help them participate in school at the most basic of levels. By funding this grant you would be investing in the following items: Ticonderoga pencils, masking tape, paper plates, rubber cement, electric pencil sharpener, five subject notebooks, scissors, and glue sticks. Thank you in advance. -Teachers at EGMS.

Mrs. McIntosh will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 19.
