My Project

My students are coming from low-income families that can not afford all the supplies the school requires. Being able to offer them the same as the other students without feeling left outside will give them joy and hope for the new school year.

School supplies will help my students improve their grades, creativity, attitudes toward learning, behavior, peer relationships, and self-control.

School supplies are the essential tools that allow for hands-on learning. Instead of just listening to the teacher, proper supplies allow students to be active participants in their educational journey.
