My Project

If my project is fully funded, the materials will be used to improve literacy to a host of underprivileged children. My student's have dreams of becoming successful in everything that they do daily, that will allow them to become productive competitive people in the future. In order for their dreams to become a reality, foundational skills must be mastered in early elementary education. Student's must be exposed to experiences and schema that relates to real world events. Events that are relevant to children, that will allow them to make necessary connections. It all has to connect with their reality. Their real world. We thank you so much for your support.
