My Project

I have a great group of fourth graders this year. Our school has a large majority of students living in poverty. I would like to make sure they have everything they need for the coming winter months.

Since several students don't have these supplies, I would like to provide students with warm gloves, socks, and Chapstick for our winter season.

By providing my whole classroom with these items, no one will feel singled out or shame. I will be "gifting" these to them.

My hope is that students will always have what they need to stay warm. Students can't concentrate very well on learning if they are cold or sick. Thank you for your consideration of this project.
