My Project

Hello Future Donors,

My name is Ms. Anderson and I work at a school in Brooklyn, NY.

I work in a district 75 school in an urban community. This school consist of approximately 200 students that have special needs. My students come from low-income household and any help we can get will truly help me through this school year.

My class is in need of supplies and I'm asking for your help. For this class, I have a list of things that I will need to have a fun learning environment in my ADL room. As you know, ADL ( Adaptive Living Skills) is a essential part of life and with your help and my guidance, we will equip students with life skills such as learning how to brush their teeth properly, learning how to measure different ingredients, as well as basic life skills.

As a teacher, I want to prepare my students with tools that will follow them through life. With your help through donations I'm on my way to do all these things. Any help you give is appreciated. I'm looking forward to this amazing and rewarding school year.
