My Project

I am seeking to provide a class pack of PRISMACOLOR© Premier© Colored Pencils for our talented young artists at a Title 1 school. These high-quality colored pencils will make a significant difference in their learning by enabling students to express their creativity effectively and build impressive art portfolios. Access to premium materials is crucial for nurturing their artistic talents and ensuring they can compete for spots in specialized high school art programs. My goal for this project is to empower students to explore their creativity, enhance their artistic skills, and foster a lifelong appreciation for art. By providing these materials, I hope to inspire confidence in their abilities and affirm that their creative aspirations are valued.

What makes my students special is their resilience, passion, and eagerness to learn despite the challenges they face.

Many of them come from underserved backgrounds, yet they approach art with unwavering enthusiasm and a deep desire to express themselves. They have unique voices and perspectives that deserve to be heard, and providing them with the tools they need will help them shine.Your support for this project will not only supply essential materials but also encourage these young artists to dream big and pursue their passions. Together, we can create an environment where creativity flourishes and every student has the opportunity to succeed. Thank you for considering a donation to empower the next generation of artists!
