Use Your Creativity to Make Learning Fun

Help me give my students some new art supplies to expand their creativity.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Walkama's classroom raised $183

This project is fully funded

My Project

We are an inner city school library with a very limited budget. Over 500 students attend library classes each week from pre K to Grade 5.

Having these art supplies will enable the students to create while learning.

The library classes always include an activity that supports the read a louds. Our art supplies are limited and well used.

Creating something they can be proud of supports their learning process. Many of these children's homes do not have supplies like this for them to explore and tap into their creativity.

Ms. Walkama Downey Elementary School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
