My Project

We are seeking funding to acquire blank journals aimed at promoting emotional expression and positive mental health practices among our adolescent learners.

We recognize the vital role that written emotional expression plays in the mental health and well-being of our students.

We strive to create opportunities for our students to explore and articulate their feelings in a safe and supportive setting. In line with this commitment, we seek to introduce a program utilizing blank journals as a means for our students to express their emotions and cultivate positive mental health habits.

The primary objective of this grant proposal is to procure a collection of blank journals specifically designed for middle school students. These journals will serve as personal diaries or creative outlets, encouraging students to express their thoughts, feelings, dreams, and aspirations in a private and non-judgmental space.
