My Project

Our fourth-grade classroom is in need of support to enhance our students' learning in both economics and literacy. We’ve created a classroom store where students can use "classroom currency" earned by achieving academic goals to purchase fun and practical items.

This initiative teaches financial literacy while motivating students to excel in their studies.

Your donations can help us stock the store with engaging rewards and provide much-needed books and supplies to enrich our learning environment. Every contribution makes a difference in the lives of our hardworking students. Thank you for your support!
