My Project

Hi there! I am gearing up for another incredible year in the classroom and you could help my students start the year off right! We need supplies to help create a wonderful learning environment.

I teach 25 bright and beautiful children in a high-need area of New York City.

Most of my students receive free or reduced-price lunch and are so eager to learn every day. Unfortunately, my classroom does not always meet the needs of my very excited learners with regards to materials and supplies and I do not like to ask my students' families for the supplies.

By providing these students with book pouches, incentive charts, markers, pencils, labels, and other basic supplies like paper and laminating sheets, they will feel more confident and secure in their learning experience. When they come to school and don't have the supplies that they need, it interferes with learning and achieving our educational goals. With the proper materials, my students will be prepared to learn! You can give these students the tools they need to learn and the opportunity to grow as individuals by increasing their confidence.

Help me create a learning environment where all students have access to the supplies they need.

Your donation will make a difference in the lives of the 25 students that I teach daily. When my students are given the supplies they need I will be able to teach lessons and activities where students will be engaged and confident!
