Help Mrs. Litto

My students overcome severe adversity every day...beatings with metal pipes, being burned with cigarettes, hunger and homelessness to name just a few. In spite of this they are able to come to school and show the beauty within themselves through their beautiful artwork. They work hard to concentrate when they have so much on their minds. Art is a place where they can feel safe and touch upon the beauty that is in their souls. These students who have so little are thrilled when their work is displayed in the school hallways. The compliments they recieve from staff and visitors are priceless to them. To display their work nicely in the hall we need Tru Ray construction paper to matt their work. This would help 200 students at a title 1 free lunch school. thank you for reading our proposal.
