My Project

Imagine a classroom where every student has the tools they need to learn, create, and succeed. My third graders are bright, eager learners who love hands-on activities, writing stories, and expressing their creativity. However, basic supplies like crayons, scissors, glue sticks, pencils, and folders run out quickly, and many of my students don't have the resources to replace them.

With your generosity, I can ensure that every child has access to these essential materials.

Crayons and glue sticks allow students to bring their learning to life in colorful and creative ways. Scissors help build fine motor skills while supporting classroom projects. Pencils are used daily for writing, problem-solving, and learning. Folders help keep their work organized and instill responsibility.

These simple supplies may seem small, but they make a huge difference in my students’ daily learning experience. Your support will help create an engaging, well-equipped environment where every child has what they need to thrive.

Thank you for believing in my students and supporting their success!
