My Project

Drawing and creating are such an important part of my kindergarten classroom.

My students are always eager to express themselves through art, whether it's making drawings for their families or crafting something special for me.

It brings me so much joy to see their excitement and creativity flourish! However, right now, many of our art supplies—like crayons and markers—are either broken or dried out, making it difficult for the students to fully enjoy the experience of creating.

By donating markers, crayons, and paper, you’ll help ensure that every child has the opportunity to create beautiful artwork.

Your generosity will make a real difference, as students will no longer have to work with broken or worn-out materials. I can't wait to see the smiles on their faces when they have fresh, vibrant supplies to bring their imaginative ideas to life!

Thank you for supporting our creative journey in the classroom!
