My Project

Hello! I am a speech-language pathologist working in district 75 for NYC public schools. I am blessed to have the opportunity to work with special needs young adults, exploring various vocational work-study programs. This year our principal gifted the speech department with an embroidery machine and we will be teaching our students how to sew and make simple designs to earn money for the school building. Money earned will go towards everything our students need to succeed, as well as, some fun extracurricular activities that they deserve!

Students will be able to design t-shirts, bags, aprons, etc.

to be sold to staff and other school sites around Staten Island. We look forward to your donation to help provide the best training for our students.

Students who attend any D75 school within NYC get a free public education until 21 years of age. Our job, as educators, is to provide them with life skills. Working in an occupational training school, we provide them with the tools they need to potentially have a job upon graduation; for example, following directions, learning how to sequence, socializing with customers, counting and organizing money.
