My Project

We are seeking supplies of yarn, various kinds of paper, and clay for students to express themselves artistically and engage in meaningful practical life projects. With these materials students can create handmade cards, finger knit, crochet and small landforms from clay. The projects will spark creativity, strengthen fine motor skills, build focus, coordination, and joy-all essential parts of becoming lifelong learners.

Your donation will directly support these purposeful experiences that help these students grow in their independence, confidence and community.

Thank you for helping us bring these experiences to the classroom.
