Help me give my students basic school supplies like pencils, erasers, and pencil sharpeners!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Cunha's classroom raised $304

My Project

My students are curious, friendly, and adventurous. I want them to use all their talents to create and complete their assignments. However, students lose pencils- it's just a fact. I do not want to waste time with everyone finding a pencil, checking to see if it's sharpened, and sharpening pencils. I just want to have enough pencils for everyone.

Many of my students come to school without any school supplies, and rely on their teachers for basic supplies just to complete their work.

My students need basic supplies like pencils, erasers, and pencil sharpeners. Will you help make up the difference?
