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

Dear Donors,

My 7th and 8th grades are in urgent need of mixed media paper to create some wonderful collages, and mixed media art.

I would like them to create some work using watercolor, acrylics, and even charcoal on top of doing collage, but for that to happen we need your help one more time.

I know you are generous because I have seen my donors choice projects realizing little by little and I thank you in advance for this new help that you will provide for my students, of course I will definitely upload some of the beautiful results as I always do once projects are done.

My students and I thank you in advance for your great help.

Sincerely

Edelweiss
