My Project

My class is comprised of recent immigrants. Most fled war, terror, and/or poverty in Ukraine and South America. The children are hard-working and dedicated students but lack the basic school supplies needed to be successful students. It’s hard to be a successful student if you don’t have the supplies you need to complete assignments.

Having basic school supplies will lead the children to success.

Please help them start fifth grade off on the right foot. Please help my students feel like they belong in the class, from day one. These basic school supplies will enable my students to complete assignments and be well-prepared students. I can’t wait for my students to be able to do math, art projects, and be organized because of your donation.
