My Project

Every year when starting school many students bring in their brand new supplies but as the year progresses those supplies start to dwindle. Additionally, some students never showed up with supplies at all! I want to have the tools to provide my students with some basic tools that we use frequently in the classroom.

What I'm most excited about is the multilcutural packs from Crayola which will allow all students to be capable of making self-portraits that accurately reflect how they look.

With your support you can help provide basic materials that students will use for years to come!
