My Project

I am requesting snacks, activities, and bags to hold the materials. At the end of every school year, I put together a bag of items for each student to take home for the summer. Included in each bag are some of their favorite snacks. My students love apple sauce, juice, goldfish crackers, and more!

My students love to paint!

I am also requesting watercolor paints so each student can have their own set to use during the summer. Some of my students also need new water bottles. I am hoping to get these to them before the school year ends because it gets really hot in northern Virginia and my littles need to stay hydrated!

Thank you so much for supporting this project! I am forever grateful to you!
