My Project

As a high school teacher, I have the privelege of working with someof the most amazing young people in the world. My students are special because they are diverse, resilient, creative, and passionate. Theyu come from different backgrounds and cultures. However, they share a common goal, which is to learn about economics and finance. They are always eager to explore new ideas and solve problems.

One of the ways I try to support my students is by providing them with the best learning resources possible.

However, as a public school teacher, I often face budget constraints and limited supplies This is why I am grateful for the generous donations from people who care about education and the future of our youth.
