Welcome To The Best School Year!

Help me give my students basic supplies to start the new school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Padilla's classroom raised $536

This project is fully funded

My Project

The items that I have selected will be used to create a Classroom Welcome Kit for students to ensure they have the necessary tools and resources for a successful start to the new school year. My goal is to support students who may not have access to essential learning supplies.

By providing these supplies, students will feel prepared and ready to engage in classroom activities.

It will ensure all students have access to essential learning tools, promoting equity and inclusivity. Having the right supplies can positively impact students' academic performance and classroom
