My Project

Please help me give my students some basic supplies and necessities that are needed throughout the school year, such as tissues, pencils, disinfecting wipes, etc. Some of these materials being requested are important for maintaining a clean and healthy classroom, ensuring that our students can learn in a safe environment. The other materials are commonly used items such as glue, laminating pouches, paint for crafts, etc. that are used often and frequently need to be replaced. With your generous support, my students can have the basic school supplies needed to continue to this school year on the right track!
