My Project

Help me bring the power of hands on learning to our classroom by supporting the creation of fine motor skill bins! These bins will provide engaging, therapeutic activities designed to strengthen students' fine motor abilities, such as hand-eye coordination, grip strength, and dexterity. Fine motor skills are essential for tasks like writing, cutting, and using tools effectively—skills that directly impact academic success and independence in daily life. With your generous donation, we can give our students the opportunity to practice these vital skills throughout the day, setting them up for success both in and out of the classroom. Together, we can make a difference in their learning journey!
