Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I need essential school supplies for my classroom to be able to start the course with every student at the same time without having to wait for other students to be able to access basic school supplies.

Notebooks tend to be a challenge and some learners do come to school without notebooks or writing materials due to unavoidable situations from home.

Being in a position to avail notebooks, pencils and a clear backpack will eliminate unnecessary disruptions as every learner will be able to move at the same speed with the rest of the class.
