My Project

These specific items that are requested (laminator, literature organizer, notebooks, etc.) will contribute to a safe, clean and supportive learning environment.

Our goal is to ensure each student feels valued and appreciated throughout the learning experience.

The city of Philadelphia is riddled with crime and poverty. Although there are environmental challenges, great teachers, resources and will to thrive can mitigate the efforts of poverty and bad parenting. The students that we serve are truly gifted. They are the leaders of tomorrow and deserve opportunities that will prepare them for college and beyond. Join the effort!
