My Project

Please help add comfortable seating and a rug for our classroom library. We want to give our small group area an inviting feel and encourage students to read in this area independently.

This project will expose our readers to an environment they are not use to in a traditional classroom.

We want to see if this experience will encourage a love for reading in our 6th grade classroom. This small group area will also be used for reading intervention and group work. Thank you all in advance for considering our project.

Ms. Walker New World Preparatory Charter School - East Campus Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
