My Project
Empowering Students with Essentials & Kindness!
The items we’re requesting—fidgets, stress relief tools, and school supplies like pens, highlighters, and notebooks—will make a huge difference in our students’ learning by giving them access to tools that support focus, organization, and emotional well-being.
By running our student-led school store, they’ll gain real-world experience in money management, responsibility, and decision-making, all while having the opportunity to purchase useful items for themselves or as a thoughtful gift for someone else.
Our goal is to create a space where students can develop practical life skills while also fostering a culture of generosity and kindness. What makes our students special is their enthusiasm for learning and their desire to support one another. Many of them face daily challenges, yet they show resilience and a strong sense of community. This project will give them the chance to build confidence, practice important financial and social skills, and experience the joy of giving—all of which will prepare them for a bright future!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
