Water for Students!

Help me give my students water that will help them stay hydrated in class because we do not have water fountains and students often get thirsty and need water.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Velez's classroom raised $156

My Project

Students hardly drink water during the school day because our water fountains are out of order. Thus, they must bring bottles from home or buy them at school. Students always ask me for water, but buying bottles becomes a huge expense out of my personal monetary pockets.

Learning and listening are very hard when you are thirsty, and we work very hard in class.

I am asking for water bottles to hand out whenever a student wants one. I am hoping these water bottles will help keep my students hydrated.

Thank you for supporting my students.

Mrs. Velez PS 192 Magnet School - Math & Science Grades PreK-2
