Help me give my students the ability to safely practice cooking in order to foster independent adult daily living skills.

My Project
We are requesting help getting basic cooking and safety supplies such as gloves, utensils, and plates in addition to a new toaster oven that will allow us to expand our cooking options. Currently, the Wingate Cooking Club is self-funded by teachers who purchase ingredients and supplies using money from their own paychecks. We are currently running out of gloves that allow students to cook safely. We are also in need of plates, bowls and utensils so our student chefs can share their creation with other students in the school.
The Wingate Cooking Club allows students with development disabilities to learn cooking and adult daily living skills.
Students in the Wingate Cooking Club are ages 14-21 and enrolled in special education classes. The Wingate Cooking Club meets 1-2 days a week to prepare food that all students at P36K are invited to sample. Previous projects include pizza, rice and peas, BBQ fried chicken, and chicken curry.
More than half of students from low‑income households
