My Project

Thank you for donating these fabulous craft supplies that we will use to create gifts for people in our community. Making crafts is very calming for our students and will promote kindness toward others.

Our beautiful students have such huge hearts and we want to encourage them to spread that kindness by making others feel good during this holiday season.

What better way to do that than to create some holiday crafts that will surely make people smile?

We will make sock snowmen, picture frames, ornaments, and glittery winter scenes that will adorn our families' and neighbors' windows. We are so excited for this project to help bring our community closer and help others smile.
