My Project

Your donation would fund amazing new tools for the students at my school. I am an art teacher for an elementary school; I have over 600 students come to me a week to learn and live in art. We love to create new items every week. Having the new supplies would help open this world up for the students. These new pencils are and three in one pencil; they are watercolor, color pencil, and crayons. These pencils will allow ease to my older students and younger ones.

The books will be my opening activity for the students.

This will allow them to have a refresher of why we are stepping into the world of art before creating. Your donation would allow students of all ages to make mistakes, feel comfortable creating, and explore their own minds in a beautiful way.
