My Project

I am reaching out to request essential supplies for our 4th-grade classroom. Our printer is a vital tool for student assignments and classroom activities, but we urgently need toner cartridges to keep it running smoothly. Unfortunately, the cost of toner is an ongoing challenge, and I would greatly appreciate your donation to help me ensure that my students can continue to benefit from printed resources for their learning.

These toner cartridges would significantly impact keeping our classroom fully equipped.

In addition, I am also seeking earbuds for my students. With the growing use of digital learning tools and educational apps, having personal earbuds has become necessary for students to engage fully in lessons without distractions. Many of my students currently do not have access to their earbuds, which can limit their ability to participate in certain activities. By providing these basic supplies, you will help create a more effective and inclusive learning environment for every child in our class. Any support you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
