My Project

Last school year, between DonorsChoose and myself, I was able to get over 30 financial literacy games and books for children and my students loved it.

This year, I will be moving from class to class to teach life skills and would need a cart with shelves to store and transport the financial literacy materials.

I am also requesting four more games that teach financial literacy, especially the game "Pay Day" which was the most popular among my students.

Your donation will allow me to organize the financial literacy booklets I received from DonorsChoose last year, as well as the stacks of games I will be traveling from class to class.

My students will benefit from these games as it teaches life skills and money sense, which they need for math as well as in real life.
