Help me give my students art supplies to release anxiety and open their creativity through Words of Affirmation projects.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
I work at an inner-city elementary school as a 4th grade teacher. While my classroom consists of general ed students, 10 out of 29 of them are ELL's. The majority of my students are living below the poverty line, and all students receive breakfast at school.
My students are ambitious and eager to learn.
The progress they are making is seen each day. While my students are willing to give their all, their lack of accessing technology devices at home impedes their development as a 21st Century Learner. Literacy is not promoted in many of their homes as most of their parents are new to the language. The need for technology is even greater now that remote learning is in full gear.
The motivation and enthusiasm each student brings into our classroom has transformed us into a learning community. Our endless support for one another is reflective in their development thus far.
My Project
September is the month that remote learning will be a thing of the past. Some students will be ready to return to school in person while others may experience some type of anxiety. So how can I help them? I thought I would use art to empower them and yet help release stress while addressing their fears.
Exposure to art and participation in creative activities can change a mood, support emotional healing, and give anxiety and pain a voice.
I am asking for support in order to purchase canvas and easel sets, paint brushes, paint, daily mini affirmation notebooks, pallets, and a welcome back banner.
Thank you in advance for your generous contributions!
