My Project

My elementary school students become more engaged when they know that if they exceed lesson expectations, they will receive a golden chocolate coin or mint "money." These items have the benefit of promoting financial literacy as well. We are also desperate for classroom sharpeners.

As financial and functional tools, we need these chocolate coins, money mints, and sharpeners in our art classroom.

Our students live in a financially challenging environment. We are a title I school with 95% of the students qualifying for free lunch. That means chocolate coins and money mints are a welcome novelty to our mostly immigrant school population.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
