We're Fading............. Away... Need Printer Ink!

My students need more black and color printer ink cartridges to print their work in our tiny library.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O.'s classroom raised $161

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our little, public school Library serves the needs of a high poverty population, grades K-6, including many students from around the world. We are a Title One school, with 85% poverty and have no technology money for our color printer ink. We are very happy with our DonorsChoose printer!

We have bright students really challenged by today's world.

We provide a safe and nurturing environment for them every day. Our students and I would LOVE more black and color printer ink to print their work. I also use our color printer to print posters for special displays and celebrations. I make lots of instructional posters, signs and other items for display in our little library. We have no technology money for our color printer ink.

My Project

Please help us get new HP color and black ink cartridges for the next year. We need a working, useable printer, and our cartridges are gone. With new ink, we can continue to print colorful posters to inspire students. Some students do special reports in our library, with graphics. Being able to print their work with colored illustrations makes them much more exciting! All our students would benefit in one way, or another, by having a library printer that works! A colorful library keeps our students excited!

Our Library and Technology budget has been eliminated for the last several years.

New color printer ink does not qualify for any funding. We have no school or PTA funds. Help keep our students excited and fill their lives with color. Sometimes the little things mean a LOT!
