My Project

This project is all about ensuring that each of my firsties has the supplies they need to succeed for the remainder of the school year and for the summer session too!

The 2024-2025 school year is rapidly flying by and soon we will be entering our summer school session.

In just a couple of weeks we will be starting the fourth nine weeks of the school year and many of the kiddos have run out of supplies!

For this project, we are requesting basic school supplies such as pencils, crayons, glue sticks, scissors, paper, and a few other essentials. Having these supplies will make the class year a success as not all children bring in supplies. If you would like to help us start the new year off right, then please consider a donation to our project!
