Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I want to provide basic classroom supplies for my students, ensuring they have the necessary tools to excel in their educational journey. Many of our students come from low-income backgrounds and lack access to essential supplies such as notebooks, pencils, and art materials.

I intend to create an inclusive learning environment that fosters student engagement, creativity, and academic achievement by addressing this fundamental need.

With your support, I can equip my students with the resources they need to reach their full potential and thrive in the classroom.

Access to essential supplies will enable my students to take organized notes, engage in collaborative activities, and effectively communicate their ideas. In addition, providing these supplies shows our students that their education is valued, boosting their self-esteem and motivating them to pursue their academic goals.
