Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Greetings,

My name is Mr. Phillips and I am the K-5 Drama Teacher here in Atlanta, GA and I need your help!

Teaching in an underprivileged high poverty area creates a lot of stress for students and their parents, resulting in a lack of resources which ultimately effects the teacher and the child's well-being.

In an effort to combat the lack of resources within the area of my school I am asking your help in providing us with a speaker for our productions, literary tools for my students to enhance their reading, cleaning products to ensure we keep a healthy and safe learning environment as well as puppets for improv lessons.

Currently at my school we do not have the funding for a new sound system and a theatre renovation so I am asking for any help that is available in requesting this speaker.

By donating to our project not only will you be creating a positive learning enviornment for my Drama students, you will be investing in their education and allowing them the opportunity to grow in their creativity.

Mr. Phillips
Grades 3-5
