My Students

Rochester, New York is home to a diverse, multicultural, and deeply rooted history. Our families work hard to provide the best for their children and want nothing more than for the next generation to surpass the poverty line.

This year, like many other children, my second greasers are struggling to (re)gain academic discipline, establish personal relationships/teamwork, and working hard quickly close the educational gap due to remote learning.

Please help our littles..... by donating tools for success.

My Project

By donating this project, you will give children access to multi-cultural books, books these children can relate to. You will also provide hands online learning games that will allow our children a chance to see the whys and how numbers and shapes work together.

By donating books, math manipulates, and a center to explore these gifts safely, you will feel an overwhelming sense of joy to know this project will help bridge education with culture.

Our children need more hands on understanding more now than before. Teamwork, educational resources , multi cultural books and hands on learning can help shape their future as a life long learner.
