My Project

My goals for this project is for my students with special needs because they need it so much in order for them to be successful in their learning. I don't want them to teach only their minds but I want also to touch their hearts and transform their lives. I want to support my students that's why I ask your help to provide the things that they need.

Everyone is unique.

My students are special because they have different exceptionalities as well as they are also part of the community that they belong and everyone has the right to education regardless of their disabilities. By supporting them, they can also achieved what they want in the future. Be a good citizen and learn to live independently.
