We Makin' Paper

Help me give my students the chance to make their own paper from recycled materials, explore their creativity, and feel proud of what they have made with their own two hands.

My Project

Our elementary art class is about to start a fun and imaginative paper-making project, and we’d love your help! The kids are so excited to learn how to turn recycled materials into beautiful handmade paper. This hands-on activity teaches them about sustainability, creativity, and teamwork—all while letting them get a little messy and a lot inspired. To bring this project to life, we’re looking for support to purchase materials like screens, sponges, towels, and other supplies.

Even the smallest donation can make a big difference for our young artists.

These kinds of creative experiences help kids build confidence, express themselves, and see how art connects to the world around them. It’s not just a craft—it's a functional work of art!

We’re so excited to fill our classroom with laughter, learning, and colorful creations. Your generosity helps create those special “look what I made!” moments that kids will remember for years to come. Thank you for being part of this joyful journey and supporting our next generation of young artists!
