Supply a classroom

$100

Fill an empty classroom with furniture, shelves, computers, games and supplies. Poorly equipped classrooms drastically impact education quality, leaving children frustrated and struggling to learn.

“My name is Tatiana and I’m 15 years old. When I think about Grade 8, I remember the sadness of not having enough school supplies, like notebooks and pencils, or even a ball to play with. I was afraid of falling behind. I wish all schools were full of supplies! Once, I had a math assignment due but couldn’t turn it in because I didn’t have a notebook. I received a lower grade because of that. My classmates and I often felt less than other schools for not having what we needed. Filling our schools with supplies will help students like me mentally, physically and emotionally. I dream of studying medicine and being a flight attendant.”

Tatiana, 15, Paraguay
