My Project

I would love to provide pencil sharpeners, batteries, and highlighters to congratulate my students hard work this year.

The pencil sharpeners will be used as incentives for students working hard.

The batteries will will used for the pencil sharpeners. We love to use sharpened pencils on all written work. The highlighters will be used to annotate our reading texts.

With the help of generous donors like you, we can ensure that every student experiences the joy of learning. Your contribution will make a meaningful impact, and together we can fill their hearts with love. Thank you for your support!
